1.0 BACKGROUND OF STUDY The deflections of a beam are an engineering concern as they can create an unstable structure if they are large. People don’t want to work in a building in which the floor beams deflect an excessive amount‚ even though it may be in no danger of failing. Consequently‚ limits are often placed upon the allowable deflections of a beam‚ as well as upon the stresses. When loads are applied to a beam their originally straight axes become curved. Displacements from the initial axes

2013 Lab Report Experiment # 3 Bending of Beams Section # ThTh12 Group # 1 Ömer Ege Çalışkan Serhat Karakuz Noyan Uğur Renda Turgut Soydan 20.03.2013 Abstract In this experiment‚ a simply supported beam is used and the variations of deflection of a simply supported beam with load‚ beam thickness and material are investigated. It is found that the deflection of the beam changes linearly with the load and as the beam thickness increases‚ the beam deflection decreases. In

Bending of a Beam Senior Freshman Engineering Laboratories Lab: 2E4A Coordinator: Asst. Prof. Bidisha Ghosh Demonstrator: Concept A transverse load is applied to a beam. The beam changes its shape and experiences bending moment. Internal stresses (bending stress) develop in the beam. In the bent or curved shape‚ the material on the inside of the curve experiences compression and material on the outside of the curve experiences tension. In pure bending‚ the transverse planes in the material

Simple Experiments on the Enzyme Catalase Aim: The aim of this practical is to use three different techniques to investigate the effect of different concentrations of the enzyme catalase on the rate of breakdown of hydrogen peroxide. Background information Catalase is an enzyme which is found in all living organisms. This enzyme catalases the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen. Cells continually produce a poisonous by-product of metabolising‚ called hydrogen peroxide. This
