MM2MS3 Asymmetrical Bending Laboratory Report Date of Laboratory: Name of Student: Student ID: Summary Asymmetrical bending is bending couples acting in a plane of symmetric. If loads do not act in plane of symmetry‚ this leads to deflection in a plane perpendicular to the loading plane as well as in the loading plane. This coupling does not occur if the loading is in principal plane. The experiment was conducted to investigate the deflections of the tip of a cantilever when loaded transversely

showing column drop. Analysis of slabs. Theoretically all slabs span to a greater or lesser extent in both directions. In practice many slabs are designed to only span in one direction and although there will be a small moment in the orthogonal direction in practice it is neglected. According to classical plate theory‚ a two way spanning slab is subject to the following forces; Mx‚ My‚ Mxy‚ Myx‚ Vx and Vy. In practice we only design for Mx and My and provide

Moment of Inertia Academic Resource Center What is a Moment of Inertia? • It is a measure of an object’s resistance to changes to its rotation. • Also defined as the capacity of a cross-section to resist bending. • It must be specified with respect to a chosen axis of rotation. • It is usually quantified in m4 or kgm2 Quick Note about Centroids…. • The centroid‚ or center of gravity‚ of any object is the point within that object from which the force of gravity appears to act. •

combination of internal transverse shear force and bending moment. An accurate analysis required in order to make sure the beam is construct without any excessive loads which affect its strength. A bending moment exists in a structural element when a moment is applied to the element so that the element bends. Moments and torques are measured as a force multiplied by a distance so they have as unit newton-metres (N·m). The concept of bending moment is very important in engineering (particularly in

Moment of Inertia 1. Abstract The goal of this study is to understand the transfer of potential energy to kinetic energy of rotation and kinetic energy of translation. The moment of inertia of the cross arm my group measured with the conservation of energy equation is: 0.01044 kg/m2 (with the mass of 15g)‚ 0.01055 kg/m2 (with the mass of 30g)‚ which is kind of similar to the standard magnitude of the moment of inertia of the cross arm: 0.0095 kg/m2 (Gotten by measuring the radius and the mass
