Strain is a result of applying force on an immovable or stagnant object. This in turn causes the displacement or deformation of the given object on which strain is applied. Strain gauge is used for measurement of mechanical quantities and is a highly useful engineering tool.

2. • Strain is a result of applying force on an immovable or
stagnant object. This in turn causes the displacement or
deformation of the given object on which strain is
applied. Strain gauge is used for measurement of
mechanical quantities and is a highly useful engineering
tool. It finds its application in strain value measurement
which is done on the specimen or the structural part and
includes the measurement of material safety and
endurance other than the strain.

3. • Strain gauges play a significant role in Structural
Monitoring because of their many advantages against
that of the conventional monitoring systems, precisely
visual inspection. Strain gauges are useful in stress
analysis and are available in various types. You have
many choices if you need strain gauges for your projects
because there are various companies that provide
complete solutions from start to the test and
measurement as well. This is done with the help of its
engineering team and technicians. There are certain
expert firms which provide reliable and quality in
Instrument Calibration Services.

5. • Strain gauges come with numerous benefits which
include less maintenance cost because of less field
failures, increased service life, enhanced diagnostic
capabilities, product sales rise but to name a few. Strain
gauges do make use of special transducers for
measurement of derived quantities as well as the forces
like, pressures, vibrations, moments, accelerations and
others.

7. • The various gauges that are used for bridge
instrumentation include Thermocouples type T Copper
Constantan (-50 to +250), Designation EA-06-250AE-
350 for reinforcement bars, Designation CEA-06-
250UW-350, Designation EA-06-250AE-350. The
soldering of lead wires can be done easily with this
series, because of its rugged copper coated tabs.
• The gauges used for concrete surfaces come with 6rpm/
0F and have a length of 2 or 4 inch. The designations
used for concrete surfaces include designation EA-05-
40CBY-120, Designation EA-05-40CBY-120, EA-06-
40CBY-120.
