In Europe, the metrological connection needs in force are not covered beyond 15 MN. This corresponds to industrial applications in many fields (mechanics, construction, energy). The needs are estimated up to 50 MN.
Objectives
Extending the range of force measurements above 15 meganewton
Consolidate force measurement uncertainties with force pyramid benches
Improve the calibration control of multi-component sensors
