The Unit Includes:
Parabolic arch made of tempered steel with 7 cords with hangers to hang the weights from them (uniformly distributed load or point load):
Cross section: 20 x 1.5mm.
Length: 500mm.
Height: 200mm.
Frame, of anodized aluminum, with measurement system to level the ends of the parabolic arch.
Computer interface unit and software are included. The Two Hinged Parabolic Arch Computer Interface set has the same accessories as except Horizontal Force Support is replaced by Horizontal Force Load Cell.
....
Dial gauges record the deformation of the arch under load
Four sets of weights to compensate for the reactions of a fixed support
Loading of the arch with a distributed load by way of 7 evenly distributed weights or by point loads
Investigation of a parabolic arch, optionally statically determinate 1 fixed support, 1 movable support or indeterminate two fixed supports.
Experimental set-up in frame.
Storage system to house the components.
