SE 110.44

Experimental Set Deflection of Trusses

Technical Description

This experimental set enables, in conjunction with the SE 110 / SE 111 universal test frames, the elastic deformation of different plane trusses to be experimentally investigated. During these experiments, Castigliano's theory is demonstrated and applied. The truss members are made of PVC. The different lengths of the members enable numerous truss variants to be assembled and save time-consuming adjustment. The members are quickly and securely attached to the joint disc using special snap action joints. A spindle drive with a ring dynamometer is used to load the truss. The two bearings with joint discs and the loading device are equipped with rapid action fasteners for attachment to the frame.

Learning Objectives / Experiments

· Deformation of elastic trusses subject to a point load
