Verification Clarke S Maxwell Reciprocal Theorem
Apparatus for Verification of Clarke’s Maxwell Reciprocal Theorem
Apparatus consist of a mild steel beam 100cm long and 1.25cm x 4mm in cross section with graduations at every 10cm along the length. It should be supported on two knife edge supports 70cm apart with a 30cm overhang on one side. Reciprocal theorem can be verified by direct measurements of the deflections of various points with the help of a dial gauge due to a load placed at the reciprocal points. A dial gauge with 25mm travel (with a magnetic base) should be supplied with the apparatus. Apparatus to be supplied should be complete with a supporting stand and a set of weights.

Portal Frame Apparatus
DESCRIPTION:
Portal Frames used for the measurement of horizontal reaction are made stiffer by using M. S. flats rectangular cross section (10mm thick and 40mm wide). All are true to shape. The ends can be other fixed of hinged as desired. The end at which horizontal reaction, is to be measured, is provided with ball bearing rollers, which easily rolls on a smooth rolling platform. At the roller end a chord is attached which is connected further to spring balance. The spring balance records the horizontal reaction, for the measurement of slope and deflection. Both the columns of the portal frame can be clamped (fixed) or pivoted (hinged) and required.EXPERIMENT:
• To study the behavior of a portal frame under different end conditions.TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION:
• Apparatus made up of M.S. plate of rectangular section of 3mm thick x 40cm wide. • Frame is provided with a provision to achieve different end conditions viz. hinged, roller & fixed. • The size of portal will be 40cm x 60cm. Portal may also have a provision for pulley arrangement and hook arrangement for horizontal loading at different positions. • Apparatus is to be supplied complete with a supporting stand and a set of weights • Electronic load cells, displacement cell and Electronic Control Unit (ECU) provided with apparatus. • Software for digital calculations to easily performs by students.OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES:
• PC/Laptop Set.Redundant Joint Apparatus
Apparatus consists of three suspension members (spring balances) of different stiffness, which are jointed at a point to form the redundant joint. The upper end of the suspension members being tied in a position to a vertical wooden board. Arrangement is provided to apply a vertical load at the joint and to measure its horizontal and vertical displacement on a paper and also elongations and forces in the suspension members by the help of dial gauges. Dial gauges with magnetic base are provided with the apparatus.
EXPERIMENT:
Comparison of experimental and theoretical results of forces in the members and the component displacement of the loaded joint D of a three bar suspension system for vertical loads.REQUIRED ACCESSORIES:
• Redundant Joint Apparatus • Dial Gauge : 1 No. • Magnetic Base : 1 No. • Hangers : 1 Nos. • Weight of 500gm : As Per requirement.Pinned Joint Model
SPECIFICATION:
Model consists of hinged. Model will be able to demonstrate the qualitative behavior of the truss under load. As are very flexible, a compression members will easily it`s bucking i.e. It will curve of plain. The tension member however remains straight and tight. The student will therefore have a visual picture of the type of stresses i.e. Compressive or tensile that member of truss will carry under various positive of the load. In case of pinned joint truss, the student will be able to observe that angle between members at each joint undergo a small change.Elastic Properties Of Deflected Beam Apparatus
Apparatus consists of a mild steel beam 2.5cm x 3mm in cross section and 100cm long, pinned to two supports 70cm apart situated symmetrically. One of the ends can be fixed or given a known slope by applying a known moment at the end with the help of suspended loads. At the other end also a known moment can be applied. Vertical loads can be applied at various points along the span of the beam. A dial gauge with 25mm travel (with a magnetic base) may be supplied with the apparatus. Apparatus to be supplied should be complete with a supporting stand and a set of weights
Curved Member Apparatus
Apparatus consists of a steel bar which is used to make the different curved members Viz. circle, semicircle with straight arm, a quadrant of a circle and quadrant of a circle with straight arm. The bottom ends of the members are fixed to the base. Under the application of load at free end, its horizontal and vertical deflection can be measured with the help of dial gauges. A dial gauge with 25mm travel (with a magnetic base) is supplied with the apparatus. Apparatus to be supplied should be complete with a supporting stand and a set of weights.
Experimental Capabilities: Apparatus is supplied complete with a supporting stand and a set of weights.
Three Hinged Arch Apparatus
The mild steel model has a span of 100cm and rise 25cm, with hinges at supports and crown. One of the ends should rests on rollers. Along the horizontal span of the arch various points are marked at equidistant for the application of load. This being a statically determinate structure, the horizontal thrust developed under the action of any load system can be theoretically calculated and will also be measured directly by neutralizing the outward movement of the roller end. A dial gauge with 25mm travel (with magnetic base) may be supplied with the apparatus. Apparatus to be supplied should be complete with a supporting stand and a set of weights.
Elastically Coupled Beam Apparatus
Apparatus consists of a three parallel bar suspension system with elastic beam at their upper and lower ends. The upper ends of the two outer suspension rods are tied to a vertical wooden board while central suspension rod may be tied to the centre of another elastic beam supported at two outer ends only. Mild steel Apparatus to be supplied should be complete with a supporting stand and a set of weights.
