UBC Research Project

A workshop is taking place at UBC, in which participants are constructing a scale model of the Stanley Park building that will be tested on a seismic shake table in August.



Steve and crew assess the shake table in the earthquake engineering lab.




A steel frame that will support the model is assembled.
