About This Product
A slender column under axial load can buckle, and the load at which it buckles depends on how its ends are held. This is the basis of the end condition factors in Euler's column theory. The apparatus mounts four columns with different end conditions on one board, so students can compare their behaviour using the weights supplied. It is used in strength of materials and structural mechanics labs. The Behaviour of Column and Struts Apparatus can be supplied for export orders from Bahrain, Panama, Bahamas, Bangladesh, New Zealand and Honduras.
