Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book unpacks the invention and development of the proving ring, a portable load measuring device created by the National Bureau of Standards to accurately calibrate testing machines. The proving ring emerged as a critical tool, enabling frequent and reliable calibration of testing machines, which is essential for obtaining accurate results in engineering material and structural testing. The author comprehensively details the design, calibration, and performance of proving rings, and provides insights into the errors that may arise from variations in loading conditions and other factors. The book also explores the use of proving rings for calibrating testing machines and other applications, highlighting their versatility and importance in ensuring the accuracy of force measurements in various fields. The author emphasizes that with proper care and maintenance, proving rings can maintain their calibration without significant change over periods as long as 12 years, making them a valuable and reliable tool for ensuring accurate testing results. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
