Experimental and analytical studies on the response of freestanding laboratory equipment to earthquake shaking.

This paper presents results of a comprehensive experimental program on the seismic response of full-scale freestanding laboratory equipment. First, quasi-static experiments are conducted to examine the mechanical behavior of the contact interface between the laboratory equipment and floors. Based on...
