🏗️ Japan has a competition where wooden walls are DESTROYED by hydraulic jacks until one shatters.
"Kabe-1 Grand Prix" — born from the 1995 Kobe earthquake. Universities vs major contractors.
2025 champ withstood 5.4 tons of force.

I am still in shock at the image of the falling building in Bangkok, it seems way to far. Any help from the earthquake engineering folks? Is it because of the soft story? The fact was in was under construction ? Local site effects? #earthquakeengineering
Join us May 16 for a workshop on using @ucsandiego.bsky.social 's shake table to advance #earthquakeengineering! Collaborate, explore grand challenges, and tackle seismic design issues. Keynotes from experts.

In less than two days I have been able to grow in this community and I hope to continue doing so. I look forward to continuing to grow and sharing more information about seismic events that arise as a scientific communicator.
