United Scientific Earthquake Shake Table
Grades 7–12
This Earthquake Shake Table allows students to test different structures to see which ones can best withstand the vibrations caused by earthquakes.Â
The broad 16 in. x 16 in. base has 4 strong springs at the corners and adjustable mountings to hold a variety of tower bases. A tower model can have a base up to 12 in. on each side.Â
A pair of motors are mounted underneath with a protective cage to protect fingers while the table is in motion. The motors can be easily powered individually or together by a 1 to 5 V DC power supply (required but not included) and are intended to be a reliable and consistent source of vibrations. If a more energetic vibration is needed to test a design, the base can be manually shaken.
Note: This is a shaking apparatus only. Users need to provide the building materials and power supply.
