Tara Hutchinson, a professor in the UC San Diego Department of Structural Engineering, is the lead researcher on a series of tests on a 10-story, cold-formed steel-framed building at the UC San Diego ...
PORTLAND, Ore. (KATU) — Crews have started constructing a test foundation as part of the earthquake protection measures for the Burnside Bridge project. A 10-foot-wide test shaft is being built in Tom ...
The impact of an earthquake on people and property depends not only on the earthquake's characteristics like magnitude and ...
Structural engineers at UC San Diego were waiting to see how a tall building, made from recycled steel, would react in a 6.9 magnitude earthquake. The earthquake shake table was ready to go as the ...
Drivers on Interstate 15 may have noticed smoke near Pomerado Road this morning. KPBS education reporter Katie Anastas says it was part of a UC San Diego study on how fire spreads through ...
Last week, a plot of land in North Portland felt a shake, but not one caused by an earthquake, but instead by a machine known as T-Rex. Researchers with Portland State University were simulating a ...
Mehdi "Saiid" Saiidi held the third in a series of three bridge shake table tests Oct. 5. The high amplitude tests determine if the bridge model is durable enough to withstand powerful earthquakes.
The University of Arkansas, Fayetteville's College of Engineering tested a full-scale steel beam against simulated earthquake ...
Climb aboard the California Office of Emergency Services' shake trailer to feel a simulated 7.0 magnitude earthquake. The shake trailer will be on the west side of the Quad Oct. 13 to promote ...
Just off the coast of the Pacific Northwest is the Cascadia Subduction Zone, a complex collection of earthquake faults created by one tectonic plate pushing its way under another. Every 400-600 years, ...
A 10-story cold-formed steel-framed building will soon be put to the test on an earthquake simulator at the University of California San Diego to see how well it can withstand earthquakes. The UC San ...
