I have a strain gauge (the BF350-3AA), and I will be connecting it to an HX711-based amplifier sensor.

From its low-quality datasheet, I've pulled out the following figures:

1. Nominal Resistance: 350 ohms
2. Sensitivity Coefficient (which I believe is also called the Gauge Coefficient): 2.1
3. Sensitivity Coefficient Dispersion: <+/- 1%
4. Transverse Effect Coefficient: 0.4%
5. Strain Limit: 2%

Ultimately, the quantity that I want to measure is the number of micrometers of deflection over the lenghth of the gauge. What is the minimum sensitivity (or precision) of deflection I can measure?

Bonus question: What formula do I use to calculate the deflection as a function of resistance (or resistance change)?

The gauge is being deployed inside a long flexure block of concrete, with its normal parallel to the axis of the press.
