Roof Truss Experiment Lab Report Discussion

The first is between load and the shear force with load is on y axis and shear force is on x axis.

Roof truss experiment lab report discussion.

Force in redundant truss full report table. Academia edu is a platform for academics to share research papers. For larger spans a truss with a polygonal upper cord such as the parker truss is used for some savings in material. You will choose one of the strain gages and use the p 3500 strain indicator to measure the strain.

Aim of this experiment is to study the effect of force magnitude on shear forces in a beam. In class wednesday 11 26 08 overview a three dimensional truss is tested under transverse loading and the load deflection characteristics and the internal bar member strains are measured. What you will do in the lab.

In the engineering term the truss is defined as the two force member where the members are so assembled that the. The instructions to set up the strain gage are given on the p3500 box. Common types of trusses bridge trusses in particular the pratt howe and warren trusses are normally used for spans up to 61 m in length. The truss structure consists of members elements that takes only tension or compression and no bending moment in what so ever form.

The most common form is the warren truss with verticals. The truss in class session. Shear force in a beam lab report aim. Bending moment in a beam lab report.

Civil engineering baa uploaded by. Lab report for engineering lab 2. Introduction the purpose of this lab report is to analyze how accurate the theoretical analyses of different trusses are. Wednesday friday 11 19 21 08 laboratory report due.

You will apply the load at the center of the truss as shown and record the strain.
