GENERAL INSTRUCTION Amendment Date
GENERAL INSTRUCTION:
In this lab sheet, it has THREE (3) open ended laboratory instructions to be performed.
Students must plan and organize for solutions by integrating the fundamental knowledge of
Mechanics of Materials and technical skill with appropriate laboratory testing equipment and
methodology to fulfill the requirement of each open ended instruction. Students must
consult/present and get approval against the equipment operational procedure, type of data
collection and analyses from lecturer and laboratory assistant based on respective laboratory
proposal or solution before conducting any testing. Students are reminded to emphasize safety
and good ethic when handling the equipment and other facilities in Light Structural Laboratory.
All findings must be verified, prepared and fulfilled the requirement of technical report
criteria and others from respective laboratory instructions.

Force, Stresses and Deflection in Beam Amendment Date
Introduction
This Mechanics of Materials open ended laboratory is designed to construct an integrated
laboratory exercises on (1)beam element subjected to external and internal forces, stresses and
deflection. (2)mechanical properties of steel material and (3)the Euler’s theory and application on
compression member
LABORATORY 1:
Identification of Internal Forces, Stresses and Deflection of Simply Supported Beam
Objectives
The main objectives of this laboratory are as follows:
i. To investigate the existence of internal shear force and bending moment developed
in beam based on external loading applied
ii. To identify the relationship between load and displacement, and estimate the
modulus of elasticity of the materials.
iii. To calculate the shear stress and bending stresses developed inside the beam

Force, Stresses and Deflection in Beam
& Mechanical Properties of Steel Amendment Date
a. development of internal forces such as shear forces and bending moment along the beam, with
its stress distributions under the maximum condition
b. deflection behavior and characteristics from the load-displacement relationship obtained
Idealized model and free body diagram with respect to a specific dimension, cross section, lifting masses
and distances etc. are important to provide a clear overview to an experimented structural system. The
expected outcomes from the above objectives can be solved mathematically of based on the concepts of
statically determinate beam, static equilibriums, stresses and deflection of beam which may assist in
verifying the findings obtained from the laboratories.
NOTE: Discuss with your lecturer about the number of (1)masses to be applied, (2)
distances of the
applied mass and (3)type of cross section and appropriate sizes to be used.
LABORATORY 2:
Identification of Yield Strength and Modulus of Elasticity of Steel
Objectives
The main objectives of this laboratory are as follows:
i. To investigate the mechanical properties of steel reinforcement under tensile test by
using Universal Testing Machine.
ii. To adapt the application of Hooke’s law and characterize the behavior of a material
under stress and strain action.
