Instructions:
Make a detailed sketch of the beam showing all geometry, load point, and rosette orientation and location. (Use reverse side of this data sheet)
Before loading the beam, determine the maximum allowable load with a safety factor of 2 based on the yield strength of the material
After attaching the loading bucket and zeroing the gages, apply the load and read the strains from the 0°, 45°, and 90° gages. Construct a neat
Mohr’s strain circle (on an attached sheet), to approximate scale, and determine the in-plane principal strains and the orientation of the I-principal
axis. Calculate the principal stresses and the von Mises stress. From the principal stresses and location of the I-principal axis, construct a Mohr’s
stress circle, again to approximate scale. Show all calculations in detail on attached sheets. Locate the positions of the three strain gages on the strain
and stress circles. Also, calculate all quantities theoretically and fill in the second line of the table above. For theoretical values of strain on the 0°, 45°,
with the data analysis, see the 8-step recipe for reducing rosette data in the laboratory background unit.
Questions:
At what orientation is the strain gage rosette mounted on the beam? Your answer should state one of the gages in the rosette as a reference to your
chosen coordinate system: _________________________________________________________________________________________________________
From the strain circle, at what orientations relative to the L-axis would a strain gage give a zero output? __________________ degrees
