The Unit for studying Forces in a Jib Crane, "MFPG", is designed to study the tensile and compressive forces in a planar central force system based on the example of a crane jib.The unit represents a planar central force system in which multiple...

The Suspension Bridge Unit, "MVS", consists of a deck and two parallel main cables that simulate a suspension bridge and allow the study of stress in the main cables. The deck of the bridge is simulated by a light alloy beam that is held by both...

L'Unité d'Arc Parabolique, "MARP", contient un arc articulé préformé, qui peut être soumis à des charges ponctuelles ou uniformément réparties par au moyen de sept câbles (cordons) uniformément répartis avec des suspensions.L'un des supports de...

L'unité Arche à trois charnières, "MART", permet à l'étudiant de se familiariser avec les arches à trois charnières, de calculer les forces portantes (pour une charge ponctuelle, une charge uniformément répartie et une charge mobile), d'étudier...

The Unit for Studying Forces in a Simple Bar Structure, "MFBS", designed by EDIBON allows the study of forces acting on a simple truss when is subjected to a point load in one of the nodes that make up the structure.It consists of a group of five...

The Unit for studying Forces in Different Single Plane Trusses, "MFCS1", allows the measurement of the bar forces in various single plane trusses, the study of the dependency on the external force and the comparison of the experimental bar forces...

The Unit for studying Forces in an Overdeterminate Truss, "MFCS2", allows the measurement of the bar forces in a statically determinate truss and in a statically overdeterminate truss, the study of the distribution of forces in the single plane...

The Unit for studying Deformation of Trusses, "MFCS3", allows the measurement of the stresses in the bars in different types of trusses, and the study of the dependence of the external force and the comparison of the experimental forces in the...

The Two Hinged Arch Unit, "MFL", designed by EDIBON allows to study the response of an arched beam when an external load is applied on it.The arch is supported on two supports, a fixed one and a movable one. The displacement and horizontal...

The Portal Frame Unit, "MPO", allows to perform vertical deflection and horizontal deflection measurements in a fixed rectangular portal frames.To carry out the deflection tests, a series of loads with different weight must be applied to the...

The Stress Hypotheses Unit, "STH", allows the study and testing of stress hypotheses by applying loads in different directions on a test specimen point and measuring the deformations produced.Normal and shear stresses are applied, avoiding...

The Simple Stability Problems Study Unit, "MEPE", has been designed to study the stability of a bar subjected to buckling by obtaining the critical load in different configurations. The unit consists of two bars of same length connected by a...
