Earthquakes simulators are commonly used in a primary research role to study the dynamic and seismic behavior of structures and for validating numerical structural analysis techniques. In commercial applications,earthquakes simulators are used for assessing the operational performance of safety - critical structures during simulated earthquakes. The science and Engineering Research Council EarthquakesSimulator and research facilities at the University of Bristol have been adaptedand upgraded for use in full-scale seismic qualification of equipment, and this paper describes some of the relevant standards and specifications and provides details of the experimental and management systems at Bristol (AU)
