EERC Laboratory

• Earthquake Simulator Laboratory
  
  The Earthquake Simulator, or "shake table," was the first of its kind ever built in the world. It is a 20 x 20 ft shaking table configured to produce three translational components of motion; vertical and two horizontal. These three degrees of freedom can be programmed to reproduce any wave forms within the capacities of force, velocity, displacement, and frequency of the system. It may be used to subject structures weighing up to 100,000 lbs to horizontal accelerations of up to 1.5 G.
  
  
• NEES Laboratory
  
  The nees@berkeley Reconfigurable Reaction Wall Earthquake Simulation Facility is designed to support the development of a new generation of hybrid testing methods that smoothly integrate physical and numerical simulations.
  
  
• Micro-NEES Laboratory
  
  This laboratory sits adjacent to the main NEES laboratory and is available for smaller experiments and student projects.
