Abstract
Dynamic measurements are a required part of any fatigue test. Two frequently measured parameters are applied load and testpiece strain. Load cells and extensometers are frequently used to make those measurements, respectively. Detailed standards for static calibrations of these devices have been available for many years. These standards provide a method for calibrating a transducer, with traceability to national and international standards.
