The GUNT SE 110.12 - Lines of Influence on the Gerber Beam is designed to study the effect of moving and static loads on Gerber beams, which are commonly used in bridge construction. It allows users to determine lines of influence, which describe static reactions such as internal moments or support reactions, providing practical insight into bridge design and structural behavior.
Product Features
- Gerber beam with two cantilever beams and a suspended beam in between, statically determinate
- Cantilever beam supports equipped with force gauges to indicate support reactions
- Allows application of single point loads, distributed loads, and moving loads
- Supports are movable to demonstrate varying load positions
- Lines of influence determined using method of sections and equilibrium conditions
- All components clearly laid out and securely housed in a storage system
- Complete setup arranged in frame SE 112 for easy use and stability
Benefits
- Provides hands-on experience in bridge engineering and structural analysis
- Demonstrates the effect of moving loads on statically determinate Gerber beams
- Enables direct observation of support reactions and internal forces
- Supports advanced understanding of structural behavior under dynamic loading
