A beam provided with various supports & loadings. Support bracket at the top. The beams rectangular in section. An upward load arrangement is achieved by using a chord & double pulley bracket. Application of known moment at any point on the beam is possible by moment application fixture.

To determine the vertical plane of share center for the particular section

A teak wood beam connected by hinge spring balance mounted at fixed distance to calculate the bending moment for any load position another attachments with adjustment screw is used to determine share force at the hinge section.
