The purpose of this study was to design a dual-axis load cell that is suitable for measuring force load in kayak paddling. We used Finite Element Method (FEM) to analyze the change in stain profile of the dual axis load cell under different loading condition by alternating different strain gage placements for measuring the effects on coupled force and maximum strain output for determining the optimal placement sites of strain gage for designing the dual-axis load cell. The results of this study indicated that the size and placement sites were suitable for measuring force load in kayak paddling.
