Experiments:
The relationship between the vertical and horizontal deflections and the principal moments of area of each section.
The shear centre of various asymmetrical sections.
Horizontal and vertical deflection of different asymmetrical sections at various angles.
Horizontal and vertical deflection of different asymmetrical sections under various loads.
A U section, L section and rectangular beam cantilever is horizontally supported within a rotating clamp which fits in a substantial frame attached to the Universal Frame and Stand The rotating clamp enables the loading and deflection planes to be set relative to the cross section axes. Experiment investigating the Unsymmetrical Bending And Shear Centre Apparatus of different sectioned beams when the loading is not in the plane of a principal axis. A protractor scale is fitted to the substantial block and a pointer on the specimen references against this scale.
