associated with the experimental data. These uncertainties arise due to a random or systematic error. The uncertainties associated with a simple cantilever beam experiment‚ in which the deflection of the beam due to the applied load is recorded with both a dial gauge and a potentiometer. With the most suitable measurements of beam deflection the average value of young’s modulus and the uncertainties associated with that is calculated. The results were in accordance with the theoretical predictions. The experiment

depth for all the symmetrical beams except the channel. To find the centroid for the channel you need to use Solid Edge again (same as the Ixx window) [pic] Laboratory 1. Load another beam onto the rig. 2. Adjust dial gauge to ensure it is touching the beam. Zero the dial face by rotating the lense and locking in place. 3. Apply each load and record the deflection measurement. 4. Check you have all recordings: Beam material‚ beam cross-sectional dimensions‚ span length‚ deflection readings
