Abstract
The data sets generated from E-Defense shake table experiments of a full-scale, five-story building tested with two innovative isolation systems and in the fixed-base configuration are available in the Network for Earthquake Engineering Simulation (NEES) Project Warehouse. The experiments included an integrated subassemblage of partition walls, suspended ceilings, and sprinkler piping on the fourth and fifth floors of the building; a full-story precast concrete cladding column cover; and enclosed areas staged with building contents. Totaling approximately 211 GB between three experiments, the data set includes isolator forces and displacements, floor accelerations, and story drifts, local accelerations, and relative displacements at strategic locations on the nonstructural components, as well as extensive videos and inspection photos. The project was a collaboration between U.S. researchers of the NEES Tools for Isolation and Protective Systems (TIPS) and NEES Nonstructural Grand Challenge projects and Japanese researchers from the National Research Institute of Earth Science and Disaster Prevention. Data set DOIs are 10.4231/D3X34MR7R, 10.4231/D3SB3WZ43, and 10.4231/D3NP1WJ3P.
