This "full-bridge" configuration with a longitudinal gage and transverse "Poisson" gage on both top and bottom surfaces is the most popular for axial loads. The output is not only higher by approximately a factor of ( 
) than for the previous two-gage version but, is also
less nonlinear (approximately [
] % per 1000 microstrain produced by axial
loads). This version has good temperature
compensation because gages are present in all
adjacent arms of the bridge. Note that both gages on
a given surface are in adjacent arms of the bridge.
