Structural Analysis Laboratory EXPERIMENT NO. 1 Aim: - To verify strain in an externally loaded beam with the help of a strain gauge indicator and to verify theoretically. Apparatus: - Strain gauge Indicator‚ weights‚ hanger‚ scale‚ verniar caliper. Formula: - f = M y I Theory : - When a beam is loaded with some external loading‚ moment & shear force are set up at each strain. The bending moment at a section tends to deflect the beam & internal stresses tend to resist its bending. This internal
