7.5 magnitude earthquake? The last big earthquake in japan was almost 9.0, wich is ridiculously bigger than a 7.5 (Also, we have to remember that the scale for earthquakes is exponential) I don't think this simulation doesn't work for a highly seismic country
Sorry, probably, it is a misunderstanding, I think. In this experiment, the magnitude index is an example and is not important. It might be a direct type M 7.5 or an oceanic plate type M 9.0. Important values in individual buildings are seismic intensity, acceleration, frequency.
The video is from 2009. The 9.0M earthquake was in 2011 and it was much stronger than anyone thought was possible off the coast of Japan (the reason why the Fukushima nuclear power plant was so vulnerable). Also, they're probably referring to 7.5 directly beneath the building. The 9+ earthquakes occur in subduction zones 100+ miles off the coast in the Pacific and Indian oceans. The measure that they should have said was the lateral acceleration.
I have a design, I think it can withstand powerful earthquake. Although I am not a structural engineer but I think it would help build tall buildings that would resist vibration.... the trick is in foundation... if anyone working on this let me know so I can share....
13 years later - coming to do this video - is this design implemented anywhere and tested?
We will need these everywhere for 2020
What if the rooms are filed with people, pianos, jacuzzi, fish tanks, elephants-sized pets...etc
They should have put windows in it to see its effects.
Ahhhh 6 story wood framed.
Burn baby burn
We're all gunna die.

@TheRyesick1 this building is full size...... look at the construction occuring
Turkey needs to link up , after massive earthquake in 2023
I want to live in a house like that.
cool
i think what this lacks is alot more weight, consider the roof and alot more personal belongings. otherwise great job!
good
and other world side getting more warm, cause the material keep world cold temperature
god help Japan.
My works too. Used woodprix handbooks and build it with no problems.
It's simple, Just go to stodoys page and choice what you need.
