I'd like to do some bend tests with a weight on them and measure deflection.
Even just a few of them out of interest



Write the test specification for us (ie a few bullet points) and if it is easy enough, then I'm sure you'll get a few test results.

Swindy said.. Would the weight be you pulling against a 5m sail in 25 knots in logo high waves with a go pro mounted to the end of the boom with a scale drawn on the lense. This approach could probably take the rest of the season and several winter fronts to complete an accurate studdy.


I like your thinking :)

wind012 I am thinking needs to be same setup for consistency ie: done by same person back to back same day on same apparatus

Just boom across two saw horses with weight applied and measure deflection.
It would be interesting anyway
