TEST SETUP

BEAM DEFORMATION

Deflection

The images document progressive deflection under incremental loading (0 kg to 76 kg) where it can be observed that the block is taking the load on which the beam is placed and it is under high compression whereas beam is held by strap to restrict it from splitting.

Deflection graph
Deflection reading

The graph illustrates the relationship between load and deflection, showing a nearly linear increase up to maximum load. Measurement readings confirm a maximum deflection of approximately 10 mm at 76 kg.
