Activity 2.1.2 Beam Deflection Introduction Engineers must look for better ways to build structures. Less material typically means that there will be less weight and less cost. Knowing the Moment of Inertia for different shapes is an important consideration for engineers as they strive to make designs lighter and less expensive. Equipment 1- 2x4 (preferably straight, free of knots and imperfections) Dial calipers or a ruler with 1/32 divisions 2 - 1 foot lengths of 2x4 for use as supports Tape measure Permanent marker Floor scale Procedure You will determine the weight of one of your cl
