[Case Study] Introduction of Large High-Performance Vibration Table
Reproducing the world's largest amplitude of long-period seismic motion.
Kashima Construction Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Kashima), a major general construction company in Japan, possesses advanced technology and know-how accumulated over the years, as well as the industry's leading research institute, and is engaged in technological development and the horizontal deployment of new technologies and methods as a leading company in the industry. Kashima has long regarded shaking tables as important experimental equipment for improving seismic technology in earthquake-prone Japan, having introduced its first shaking table in 1975. After an update in 1991, it was anticipated that the current performance would not be sufficient to address various demands, such as responding to the expected massive earthquakes and long-period earthquakes, or further enhancing the seismic resistance of nuclear facilities in line with national guideline revisions. Therefore, in 2008, Kashima began considering further updates with MTS, based on its numerous achievements with large shaking tables worldwide and its past accomplishments in seismic resistance for important structures such as high-rise buildings and nuclear power plants.
