Our engineers are doing critical work to keep buildings and infrastructure safe during earthquakes at the world's only outdoor earthquake simulator, one the three biggest such facilities in the world!.#earthquake #seismicsafety.
🚨 Earthquakes rocked San Diego County this week!. Good news: @UCSanDiego's world-famous shake table is helping make buildings, bridges & other structures safer when the ground shakes. 💪🌍. Thanks to support from @NSF!. Watch on @CBS8 ⤵️.
