When measuring biaxial tension, it is necessary to measure the relative elongation in several directions, for which resistance strain gauges are used. Measurement with resistance strain gauges is based on the change in resistance of the electrical conductor when a deformation occurs. This paper discusses the design of a device for determining the strain sensitivity of resistive strain gauges, which we call the k-factor.
