Scope $5 Million, multi-organizational 3 year research project Full-scale shake table test of 5-story building on the NEES-UCSD Large High Performance Outdoor Shake Table (LHPOST) Fully outfitted with a range of nonstructural components and systems Post-earthquake fire integrity tests following earthquake shaking (parallel effort) Academic partners: University of California, San Diego, (UCSD), Worchester Polytechnic Institute (WPI), San Diego State University (SDSU), and Howard University(HU) Broad stakeholder participation (industry & government) Vision To make breakthrough advances in the understanding of total building systems performance (structural and nonstructural systems) under moderate and extreme seismic conditions through full-scale testing. Obtain data, which are sorely needed to characterize the earthquake performance of building and nonstructural building systems, including nonstructural systems with protective measures. Use this data to validate nonlinear simulation tools which in tools, turn can be used for performance-based seismic design of nonstructural and building systems. Broadly and immediately seismic design guidelines for the building-nonstructural system via design implementation.
