The apparatus consists of a 100 cm long, 2.5 cm x 3 cm, mild steel beam that is pinned to two symmetrically spaced supports that are 70 cm apart. Applying a known moment at the end with the aid of suspended loads allows one of the ends to be fixed or given a known slope. A known moment may likewise be used at the opposite end. At various locations throughout the beam's span, vertical loads may be applied. The device might come with a dial gauge with a 25mm travel range and a magnetic base. A supporting stand and a set of weights should be included with the apparatus that will be delivered.
