The Beam Apparatus is a versatile bench-top testing unit designed for the study of beam deflection and forces under
various loading and support conditions. It allows students to experiment with different beam materials, thicknesses, and
configurations to understand concepts such as bending, flexural rigidity, and static equilibrium. The apparatus includes
three load cells with digital readouts to measure support reactions and three digital deflection indicators mounted on
adjustable magnetic carriers. A graduated scale on the upper cross-member ensures precise and repeatable
measurements and two lower members bolted to T-legs to form a rigid assembly.
The equipment supports simple, built-in, and sinking support configurations, making it ideal for comprehensive beam
bending experiments. The cantilever support pillar features a robust clamping mechanism for fixed-end conditions. The
unit is supplied with five standard test beams in steel, brass, and aluminum, along with ten additional test beams in
various materials and shapes, including tapered and compound beams. The apparatus is fully compatible with the
existing Versatile Data Acquisition System (EDAQ), allowing real-time data analysis and enhanced learning outcomes.
