Unsymmetrical Bending and Shear Center
This product helps students understand symmetrical and non-symmetrical bending of three different beam shapes, including an equal ‘L’, a ‘U’ and rectangular. It also finds the shear center of the channel (‘U’) beam.
This product includes a Vernier caliper for accurate measurements of the beam cross-sections.
