Deductions are taken for all errors made while on the beam, including lapses in control, balance checks (i.e., wobbling or stumbling to maintain balance), poor technique and execution, and failure to fulfill the required Code of Points elements. Falls automatically incur a deduction depending on the level the gymnast is on.
Typically, the reading scale of the middle beam reads in 100 gram increments, the far beam in 10 gram increments, and the front beam can read from 0 to 10 grams. [2] The triple beam balance can be used to measure mass directly from the objects, find mass by difference for liquid , and measure out substances.
Beams - The three beams on the balance are used to set the level of precision, with each beam working at different increments (generally 1-10 grams, 10 grams and 100 grams). When using the triple beam balance, it is recommended to start with the lowest level of precision (e.g. 100 gram increments) and then work your way down.
A steelyard balance, steelyard, or stilyard is a straight-beam balance with arms of unequal length. It incorporates a counterweight which slides along the longer arm to counterbalance the load and indicate its weight. A steelyard is also known as a Roman steelyard or Roman balance. A 19th-century steelyard crane
Scratch hardness test or scratch test refers to any of a number of methods of measuring scratch hardness. Resistance to abrasion is less affected by surface variations than indentation methods. Scratch hardness is measured with a sclerometer. [1] Attempting to scratch a surface to test a material is a very old technique. [2]
