  • Patent number: 9261420
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a digital device and a method for measuring the axial load of a torque-shear-type high strength bolt. One embodiment of the digital device of the present invention includes: a main body portion which is connected to an electromotive wrench fastening a torque-shear-type high strength bolt; a measurement portion disposed at the main body portion to measure the axial load of the torque-shear-type high strength bolt using a quantity of the electricity from the electromotive wrench; a power supply portion disposed at the main body portion and including a power lead-in portion for receiving an external power supply and a power lead-out portion for supplying power to the electromotive wrench; and a display portion displaying the axial force value measured by the measurement portion.

  • Patent number: 6016708
    Abstract: An strain measuring apparatus for analyzing the stability of a steel structure and a method thereof employs a controller for receiving a variation difference amount from the strain gauge input unit measured using a strain gauge between a strain degree obtained by applying a weight to a steel structure and a strain degree obtained by applying a weight to a steel structure having a hole formed at a predetermined portion and measuring a strain existing in the steel structure based on the variation amount using particular equations. A control command input unit inputs an initialization command for initialing the existing strain measuring apparatus, a radius of the hole formed in the steel structure, a distance between the center of the hole and the center of the strain gauge attached to the steel structurc and an external operating signal including a proceeding command which represents a testing procedure into the controller.
