Seismic Testing

Seismic testing is a method used to evaluate how structures, like buildings or bridges, respond to forces similar to those generated by earthquakes. It involves applying controlled vibrations or shocks to the structure, either physically or through simulated signals, to observe its behavior and identify potential weaknesses. This helps engineers assess safety, improve design, and ensure the structure can withstand seismic events. The test provides valuable data on how the structure absorbs energy, its flexibility, and its overall stability during seismic activity.
