ABSTRACT
This experiment is divided into four different individual experiments. Experiment 1 is
Getting to Kno the E!uipment"# here the usage of the four different gauges are $learl%explains and &% $arr%ing out the experiment# the $on$ept is understood. 'n this experiment as
ell# the usage of (ersatile )ata A$!uisition S%stem*()AS+ is explained. Experiment , is
The Bending S%stem" is on the measurement of strain endured &% metals hen experien$ing
&ending for example airplane ings. Experiment - is The Torsion S%stem"# is on the shear
and torsional strain endured &% a metal under tisting or experien$ing tor!ue. Experiment
is The Tension S%stem"# is on measuring the tension experien$ed &% metal.
/or all the experiment# theoreti$al $al$ulation as performed and the reading from the ()AS
s%stem is ta0en to $ompare and measure the a$$ura$% of the s%stem as ell as the $al$ulation.
Throughout the experiment# the ()AS s%stem pla%ed a maor role in the $al$ulation part.
The experiment are &ro0en don $learl% to &e read and understood.

The Strain Gauges4
Strain Gauges are ele$tri$al sensors *transdu$ers+ that measure strains. Their ele$tri$alresistan$e $hanges &% a small amount hen an external for$e stret$hes or $ompresses them.
This $hange in resistan$e is dire$tl% proportional to displa$ement *strain+.

The &asis of most strain measurement is the 9heatstone Bridge# shon in /igure 11. 't has
four identi$al resistan$es *R1# R,# R- and R+ $onne$ted end to end in a diamond shape. An
input voltage *(+ $onne$ts a$ross to opposite $onne$tions. The output voltage is measured
at the other to $onne$tions.
