Scientists shake building in seismic test
Reader's Digest Building in Tokyo is 2-story reinforced concrete structure, 54×200 ft, 25 ft high, founded on piles; columns consist of 5 1/2-in. steel pipe, encased in light weight concrete for fire protection; vibration tests: period in transverse direction was 0.18 sec, in longitudinal direction 0.12 sec; ordinary buildings have periods of more than 0.2 sec transversely and 0.17 sec longitudinally; earthquake would be damped quickly.
