Beam Bending Lab Tasks
1. Working in a team of two, assemble the Beam Bending apparatus
2. Measure Deflection versus Force for:
Aluminum Rectangular Beam
Copper Rectangular Beam
Copper Square Beam
Unknown Rectangular Beam

5. Min and Max Readings
Deflection will be calculated by averaging measured minimum and maximum deflection values.
