Shear Centre Apparatus

Apparatus consists of sturdy base frame and Channel, Equal angle, Semicircle and Z-Section are supplied with apparatus. Standard length of each of the four sections in M.S. is supplied. Each is provided with end clamp for fixing to the rigid bracket. A special load hanger is provided so as to change the load position so that with the help of two dial gauges the vertical plane of Shear centre for the particular section can be determined. 
Range of Experiments Determination of the vertical plane of shear center for different cross sections commonly used for structures.
