The device is made up of three suspension elements (spring balances) that are varying degrees of stiffness and are joined at one location to create the redundant joint. A vertical wooden board is being fastened to the upper end of the suspension members. It is possible to apply a vertical load to the joint, measure the joint's horizontal and vertical displacement on paper, and use dial gauges to quantify elongations and forces in the suspension members. The device comes with dial gauges with magnetic bases.

EXPERIMENT:-

Comparison of experimental and theoretical results of forces in the members and the component displacement of the loaded joint D of a three bar suspension system for vertical loads.

REQUIRED ACCESSORIES:-

• Redundant Joint Apparatus
• Dial Gauge : 1 No.
