Shearing Force Apparatus- Engineering Lab Training Systems.
Technical Description
This demonstration unit
facilitates the experimental investigation of the progression of the
shearing force in a bar subject to point loads. Also the section
principle commonly used in mechanics can be demonstrated. Due to the
usage at 1/3 span of a low friction joint sensitive to shearing forces
and a dynamometer, the measurements of shearing force on the bar can be
recorded directly. The deflection of the bar as a result of the travel
of the dynamometers and the horizontal alignment can be compensated and
regulated using two adjustment bolts. The bar is loaded with graduated
sets of weights that can be attached at any point on the bar. The
support rollers are equipped with ball bearings.
