This experimental module is designed to fit onto the Structures platform, providing an ergonomic and efficient
setup for studying bending moments. It features a unique beam "cut" and load cell system that allows direct and
precise measurement of bending moments. Users can apply various loading conditions, including single-point
loads and uniformly distributed loads (UDLs), to analyze structural behavior. The setup includes a pinned support
(allowing rotational movement only) and a roller support (allowing translational movement), closely replicating
real-world structural conditions. The load cell positioned at the mid-span accurately records the bending moment
due to applied loads, and results can be compared between different load configurations.
The system is integrated with the EDAQ software, enabling real-time data acquisition, visualization, and analysis
through a USB interface. The package includes essential accessories such as two beam supports, a bending
moment load cell, a 0.8m beam (0.5m span), four mass hangers, 50 x 20g masses, two UDL bars, and a
comprehensive user guide. A dedicated storage tray is also provided to keep smaller components organized and
safe. This setup is ideal for educational and research purposes, helping users understand the effects of varying
loads and bending moments on structural elements.
