The experiment hardware fitted a Structures Aluminum Frame. Students compress aluminum columns (struts) using a screw mechanism. The equipment uses chucks to hold the struts and allows different end fixing conditions. An integral load cell connected to a Digital Force Display displays the load on the strut as it is compressed. A magnetic deflection scale shows how much the strut buckles. Students continue compressing the strut until reaching the critical buckling load. They then repeat the experiment using different strut lengths or fixing conditions, analyzing their results.
