A 4-days training on the Earthquake shaking table ended today at the RISAM research laboratory. This training, enabled laboratory staff to take control of the machine and to project themselves into the operational phase.

The shaking table allows submitting reduced models (of structures ...) to real earthquakes. It provides a means to excite structures in such a way that they are subjected to conditions representative of real earthquake ground motions. This is an asset for the University of Tlemcen, as it offers great opportunities in the field of research, development and provision of services.
