Determine the values of Young’s Modulus of Elasticity for a metal andfor timber.

Young’s modulus of elasticityIntroduction The purpose of this experiment is to determine the values of Young’s Modulus of Elasticity for a metal andfor timber. Young’s Modulus, E, is one of the most important design parameters for materials which are tobe used in structural roles. It is a measure of the stiffness or springiness of a material and can be used toestimate the deflection produced in a component by a given load.
