Appendix 3: Instructions for Strain and Pressure Measurement
Laboratory
Laboratory: Strain and Pressure Measurement
1. OBJECTIVES
The objectives of this laboratory include:
 Perform characterization of internal pressure in a thin-walled tank by measurements of
mechanical strains;
 Perform uncertainty analysis of characterized internal pressures with respect to parameters
involved;
 Identify, in order of importance, percentage contribution of all uncertainties to the overall
uncertainty in pressure characterizations;
