ED lll~LICAL SPRIN G
AIM.
To conduct tension test on the given close-coiled helical spring and to determine the following :
BASIC CONCEPT
Springs are invariably used to absorb energy and to release it as and when required. The energy stored
due to applied load is directly proportional to its deflection.
