<p class="MsoNormal"><b>STRUCTURAL TESTING WORKSHOP<br>
AUGUST 3-4, 2017</b><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">You are invited to attend a workshop on in-situ structural dynamic testing at Rutgers University in New Brunswick, NJ. This workshop is hosted by the Natural Hazards Engineering Research Infrastructure Equipment Facility at the University
of Texas at Austin (NHERI@UTexas). The workshop will be held from approximately <b>1pm on Thursday, August 3, 2017 to noon on Friday, August 4, 2017</b>. The workshop will include presentations on NHERI@UTexas equipment and in-situ, non-destructive dynamic
structural testing on Thursday at Rutgers University. On Friday morning, a field demonstration of dynamic structural testing will be held on an overpass bridge on I-195 near Trenton, NJ. Transportation will be provided to the field demonstration location.
During the field demonstration on Friday, the NHERI@UTexas shaker, T-Rex, will be used to dynamically excite the bridge, and sensors provided by NHERI@UTexas and Rutgers University will be used to collect a dataset of soil-foundation-structure system responses.
Travel support is available for a number of participants. Preference will be given to those interested in submitting proposals to the Engineering for Natural Hazards (ENH) program of NSF. For those who are interested but are unable to attend the workshop in
person, the presentations made on Thursday will be webcast on DesignSafe. <o:p></o:p></p>
