Description and Specification for Lab Tenders
Three Hinged Arch Apparatus.
Experimental and analytical study of 3 hinged arch and influence line for horizontal thrust.
The model has span of 100cm and rise 25cm, with hinges at supports and
crown. One of the ends rests on rollers. Along the horizontal span of
the arch various points are marked at equidistant for the application of
load. This being a statically determinate structure, the horizontal
thrust developed under the action of any load system can be
theoretically calculated and will also be measured directly by
neutralizing the outward movement of the roller end. A dial gauge with
25mm travel (with magnetic base) is supplied with the apparatus .
Apparatus is supplied complete with a supporting stand and a set of
weights
