This TecQuipment experiment illustrates and proves the basic theory of bending moments in a beam, mounts on the Structures platform (STS1) and connects to the Structures automatic data acquisition unit and software.
Next Generation Structures
Engineering Lab Equipment for Teaching Basic Structural Principles
The TecQuipment's Next Generation structures range consists of teaching equipment for understanding basic structural principles focusing on beams, bridges and cantilevers for students of mechanical, civil and structural engineering.
The USB interface hub, included with the Structures Platform (STS1) means this entire range of 21 experiments has VDAS Onboard, and directly connects to a computer running VDAS software that is available to download free here.
