The Curved Member Apparatus is a precision-engineered experimental setup designed to study the behavior of curved structural elements under loading. It is a fundamental tool for structural engineering and mechanics of materials laboratories, enabling students and researchers to analyze the stress distribution and deflection in curved beams.
Key Features:
Heavy-duty mild steel or aluminum curved beam (semi-circular or quadrant-shaped).
Precision dial gauges for accurate deflection measurement.
Loading hanger and weights for applying vertical loads at specified points.
Rigid support frame with leveling adjustments.
Designed for bending stress and strain analysis in curved members.
Compatible with standard engineering lab setups.
