Lecture 19 - Strain Gauges

Date: 10/25/16

Summary

Last class we discussed transducers and calibration. This period we will build a strain gauge bridge to measure deformation of an object. This project will be built upon for the next several labs.

Class Plan

Complete the strain gauge activity during the class period using the facilities in the lab.

Assignment

Complete the Strain Gage Activity. Show us your strain gauged object working when hooked up to a multimeter. Due: 10/27/16

Media

Lab day - no lecture slides or video.
