1. Given: A beam-type load cell with a capacity of 500 lbs force applied some distance from the location of strain gages. (AVO/Vs) = 4 mV/V. max Required: a. Sketch the beam-type load cell with location of strain gages b. If this load cell is used with Vs-8 V and AVo=18 mV, determine the force in lbs. c. If E=10x10 psi, b=2h, h=0.5 inch and x = 10 inches determine the strain (e) developed for the force applied in problem 1.a.

1. Given: A beam-type load cell with a capacity of 500 lbs
force applied some distance from the location of strain
gages. (AVo/Vs) max = 4 mV/V.
Required:
a. Sketch the beam-type load cell with location of strain
gages
b. If this load cell is used with Vs-8 V and AVo=18 mV,
determine the force in lbs.
c. If E=10x10 psi, b=2h, h=0.5 inch and x = 10 inches
determine the strain (ɛ) developed for the force
applied in problem 1.a.
