    Deflection Measurement

    The answer to the question is that the final product after passing the tests will be supplied to the public to use on commercial projects at elevation and conditions that are generally quite dangerous if the equipment is not safe enough. In other words, performance and serviceability has to be...

    Deflection Measurement

    What I was insinuating is that dial gauge in itself is a smart and simple tool. Hence there is nothing fancy to it without killing the inherent principle by which it shows movements to the accuracy of 0.01 mm. Hope that clears the question.

    There is no fancy dial gauges anyways. Still open for further suggestions

    Deflection Measurement

    I agree with the dial gauge, I already have ordered two variants for the dial gauge. It is going to work with vertical deflections at easy to access levels. Now, I really don't want to proceed with the Theodolite as well but there is the case of lateral deflections and movements as well as...

    Deflection Measurement

    The replies are very well appreciated. In my thread I pointed out a few details that I assumed should give a picture of the measurement criteria. 1. The material used in manufacture is going to range from t4 to t6 of 6061 aluminium alloy. 2. Aluminium is more ductile than steel, during...

    Deflection Measurement

    What is the latest method to record deflections during testing of material. A bit background to the question is as follows. I am in a firm where we are starting to test scaffolding material as per Australian codes. The head of operations has asked me to figure out all Equipements required for...
