Renovation of the Seismic Shake Table Facility at the John A. Blume Earthquake Engineering Center at Stanford University

这是一笔设备拨款，用于支持斯坦福大学John A. Blume地震工程中心地震振动台设施的升级。该台建于1972年，一直用于各种结构和部件的测试，并在此期间取得了重大成果。震动台设施的许多重要部件已经老化，而其他部件则已经过时。该项目对振动台设施的关键部件进行了现代化和升级。需要购买和安装的更换部件包括：带吸油泵的静压轴承和基于pc的表编程和数据采集控制系统。地震台设施升级是正在进行的大学地震改造和扩建中心项目的一部分，耗资350万美元。这次现代化是一个独特的机会，以更新和更新关键的实验室设备，它的振动台，符合CMS/ENG的概念和长期计划，以提升和网络化国家的地震实验研究能力。＊＊＊

9622323 Kiremidjian This is an equipment grant for support of upgrading of the seismic shaking table facility at the John A. Blume Earthquake Engineering Center, Stanford University. The table which was built in 1972 has been in continuous use for testing of variety of structures and components and significant results have been obtained over that period of time. Many of the important components of the shaking table facility have deteriorated while others have become obsolete. This project to modernize and upgrade key components of the shaking table facility. The replacement components to be purchased and installed include: hydrostatic Bearings with Suction Pump, and PC-Based Control System for Table Programming and Data Acquisition. The shaking table facility upgrading is a part of the on- going University's program seismically to seismicaly retrofit and expand the Center at a cost of $3.5 million. This modernization is a unique opportunity to renovate and update the key laboratory equipment, its shaking table, consistent with CMS/ENG's concept and long-term plans to upgrade and network the nation's earthquake experiment research capability. ***
