Truss Tester Accessory

Product information "Truss Tester Accessory"

The Truss Tester Accessory for the Vernier Structures & Materials Tester (VSMT) or the Go Direct Structures & Materials Tester (GDX-VSMT) provides a fast and effective method to evaluate the strength of trusses. Students use the tester to collect data that allows them to evaluate parameters affecting truss strength and apply engineering design principles to improve truss performance. This is a great tool for use in designing a truss-based bridge, tower, or other structure.
