Seismic Vibration Qualification - Friday 10th September 2010

Confidence in product reliability and functionality during and after an earthquake event is critical for many aspects of the Nuclear and Telecommunications Industries, particularly with respect to safety related equipment.

This seminar provides an overview of the Seismic Qualification process, including its objectives, commonly adopted standards and key technical issues to be aware of.  The seminar will include a demonstration of a full seismic qualification test programme on the Earthquake Shaking Table at Bristol University.

In conjunction with the University of Bristol, TRaC carries out a broad range of seismic qualification programmes each year.  This seminar will be of interest to engineers from across the mechanical, electrical, telecommunications, energy and related engineering fields and will be particularly useful to those tendering for, or embarking on projects that require seismic qualification.

The seminar will be lead by Colin Taylor, Professor of Earthquake Engineering, University of Bristol, with independent industry and academic experts giving presentations on the fundamental aspects of the Seismic Qualification Process.

The seminar will take place at The Earthquake Engineering Centre, Queens Building, University on Friday 10th September 2010 from 8.45am to 16.45pm.

The registration fee (including lunch and refreshments) is £150 (excl. VAT) per delegate.
