Then, she sat down at my table and told me it wasn't her station but she would take it. I'm hungry and didn't want to go find another place. There is only two tables now, a three top and me (solo). Tables still not cleared and it's 5:45pm. I will NEVER come to this location again! Finally got my burger and shake, 45 mins since I sat down.
This test was conducted at Japan's Earth-Defense shake table located just north of Kobe, Japan. What has the UC Berkeley campus done to increase building safety? Since 1997, UC Berkeley has completed or initiated approximately $500 million worth of seismic and related improvements in buildings across campus.

In 1968, civil engineering faculty at the University of California, Berkeley (UC) proposed to construct a 100-foot by 100-foot welded steel shaking table, weighing 2.2 million pounds. It was to be hydraulically powered by 60 to 72 actuators, allowing operation in three translational degrees of freedom, with an acceleration capacity of 2/3 g.

The following are recipes for a number of common biological buffers taken from Ruzin, 1999 Plant Microtechnique and Microscopy.When choosing one for a particular application select a buffer based on its pH optimum and biological properties rather than its historical use. Many buffer species have an impact on biological systems, enzyme activities, substrates, or cofactors …
Such is the case with the Pacific Earthquake Engineering Research Center (PEER) shake table, located at the Richmond Field Station. The world's first modern shake table, the 20'x20' reinforced concrete table was unveiled in 1972, soon after the 1971 Sylmar earthquake.

The Modular Testbed Building, or MTB2, will be the first specimen tested on the newly upgraded 6 degrees of freedom Large High Performance Outdoor Shake Table (LHPOST6). The MTB2 is designed to be reconfigurable and reusable community shared-use equipment resource. Reuse is accomplished by having a connection scheme that allows yielded members ...
Shake table tests and analytical studies on the gravity load collapse of reinforced concrete frames The objective of this investigation was to determine the mechanisms that lead to the collapse of reinforced concrete frame buildings subjected to earthquake forces. An empirical model was developed to estimate the drift at shear failure for ...
Shake table testing of a 6-story building model placed on the seismic base isolators called Earthquake Protectors (students research at CSULB and CSUN). A full-scale three-story woodframe apartment building was subjected to a series of powerful shake tests (University of California, Berkeley).

QUEST Lab: The Shaking Table at UC Berkeley. In 2008, I produced a QUEST TV feature story called, "Hayward Fault: Predictable Peril" (UPDATED: The Hayward Fault: Overdue for Disaster ). The story focused on the earthquake fault that runs from San Jose in the south to San Pablo Bay in the East Bay of the San Francisco Bay Area.

Two large-scale shake table test series, one without any mitigation measures and one using helical piles, were conducted using the shake table facility at the University of California, San Diego. During each test series, the soil and superstructure models were extensively instrumented and subjected to two consistently applied shaking sequences.
