Introduction
The ME-6992B Advanced Structures Set is one part of the PASCO Structures System. The Advanced Structures
Set can be used as a stand-alone set and it can also be combined with other parts of the PASCO Structures Sys-
tem. The Load Cell and Amplifier Set (PS-2199) can be added to measure compression and tension forces in the
structure members and other sets of plastic parts are available.
Other parts of the PASCO Structures System include the following:
Physics Structures Set (ME-6989) - A set of structure items (e.g., beams, connectors, screws) and other equip-
ment designed for studying kinematics, momentum, energy, and rotation.
Truss Set (ME-6990) - A small set of beams, connectors, and screws for building trusses.
Bridge Set (ME-6991) - A larger set with road bed and cables for building bridges and roller coasters.
Load Cell Amplifier (PS-2198) - Can plug in up to six Load Cells; requires a PASPORT interface to connect to
the USB port of a computer.
Load Cell and Amplifier Set (PS-2199) - Load Cell Amplifier (PS-2198) with four 100 N Load Cells
(PS-2200).
