Скачать или смотреть DESRACK Project | Shake Table Tests on Storage Racks for Seismic Safety

From September 8th to 17th, 2025, the DESRACK project conducted an experimental campaign at Eucentre’s laboratories in Pavia. Steel pallet racks were tested on the 140-ton 1D Shake Table using the 1999 Duzce earthquake record, applied in incremental steps up to high seismic intensities. The aim was to evaluate the effectiveness of innovative dissipative devices in improving structural performance and resilience. Advanced instrumentation, including LVDTs, 3D accelerometers, and optical systems, provided accurate measurements of connection rotations, accelerations, and displacements. These results mark a significant step forward in earthquake engineering and will inform the forthcoming SAVERACK project.
