Torsion is the twisting or wrenching of a body by the exertion of forces tending to turn one end or part about a longitudinal axis while the other is held fast or turned in the opposite direction.
A bending moment is a measure of the bending effect that can occur when an external force (or moment) is applied to a structural element.
Apparatus contains the fitting for both the torsion and bending experiment performance. Specimen for both the experimentation given with the apparatus.
