The NEES@UCSD Large High Performance Outdoor Shake Table
The Large High Performance Outdoor Shake Table (LHPOST) will be the first outdoor and largest (12.2 m x 7.6 m) shake table in the United States. A large soil pit has been strategically located adjacent to the LHPOST for Soil-Foundation-Structure Interaction (SFSI) testing. The facilities will be used to conduct large- and full-scale testing to investigate structural and geotechnical seismic performance issues that cannot readily be extrapolated from testing at smaller scale, or under quasi-static or pseudo-dynamic conditions, including performance under near-field ground motions. This paper details the main design basis, describes the specifications and possible uses of the NEES@UCSD facility.
