2 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What is the purpose of vibration testing in SHM?
Think about earthquake simulations.
Define load testing.
Consider how we check the strength of bridges.
What does vibration testing primarily assess?
Think about what happens during an earthquake.
True or False? Load testing is irrelevant for bridge safety.
Remember why engineers test structures.
Design an experiment using a shake table to test a newly designed building under earthquake conditions. List the materials and methods you would use.
Consider what you need to measure and how you would replicate real conditions.
Analyze a case study where a bridge collapsed due to poor load testing practices. What alternative testing methods could have prevented this failure?
What lessons can we learn from past failures?
