House Frame
To hold the House Frame in place, attach
a #2 Beam to the Half Round Connector
at one corner. Put a clamp on the edge of
the table and use it to hold a support rod
(ME-8995). Attach a Structures Rod
Clamp between the support rod and the #2
Beam at the corner of the House Frame.
To make measurements of the flexing of
the House Frame when masses are hung
from the members, mount the Displace-
ment Indicator of the Displacement Sen-
sor (PS-2204) on another Structures Rod
Clamp and mount the clamp on the sup-
port rod so that the plunger of the indica-
tor contacts a beam on the House Frame.
To make measurements of the forces in
the members, mount 100 N Load Cells as
shown and connect them to a Load Cell
Amplifier (PS-2198).
