Abstract:
Abstract. Seismic testing and analysis using large infrastructures, such as shaking tables
and reaction walls, is performed worldwide requiring the use of complex instrumentation
systems. To assure the accuracy of these systems, conformity assessment is needed to
verify the compliance with standards and applications, and the Quality Management
Systems (QMS) is being increasingly applied to domains where risk analysis is critical as
a way to provide a formal recognition. This paper describes an approach to the
assessment of the metrological performance of seismic shake tables as part of a QMS
recognition, with the analysis of a case study of LNEC Seismic shake table.
