Experimental and Analytical Deformation Analysis of Truss Members
Paper presents comparative analysis of experimental and analytical results of mechanical properties on truss members. Deformations are experimentally determined on the model of plexiglass truss, using six strain gauges. Strain gauges are measuring the deformation of truss members at the pre-defined measuring points. Knowing modulus of the elasticity and Hooke’s law, it is possible to calculate the stress values. The experimental stress values will be compared with the values obtained by the software and the results will be analyzed.
