Unsymmetrical Bending Apparatus should consist of a mild steel angle of size 1″ x 1″ x 1/8″ or in equivalent metric units of length 80cm is tied as a cantilever beam.

Technical Specification

The beam should be fixed at one end such that the rotation of 450 intervals can be given and clamped such that the principal axis of its cross-section may be inclined at any angle with the horizontal and vertical planes. Also arrangement may be provided to apply vertical load at the free end of the cantilever and to measure horizontal and vertical deflection of the free end. A dial gauge with 25mm travel (with magnetic base) should be supplied with the apparatus. Apparatus should be supplied complete with a supporting stand and a set of weights.
