Multi-purpose structural Test Laboratory


Structural composite test laboratory
Structural composite test laboratory

This laboratory was designed to carry out for a variety of purposes structural loading tests. It features a moveable covering structure Which improves the efficiency of composite tests such as fire tests on earthquake damaged buildings and structural loading tests following construction tests. A 9m-long, 10m-high reaction wall and 9m-1ong 12m-high reaction slab are installed inside the laboratory to enable lateral loading tests on full-scale three store structure.
