Seismic Testing Services

The use of enclosures that have been through seismic testing is called for in areas where earthquake activity is possible. Seismic testing will determine if your equipment can withstand the effects of movement or vibrations in areas close to railways, airports, power plants and other areas subject to similar conditions.

Our Vertical and Horizontal seismic testing facilities, manufactured by the Team Corporation, offer low frequency high displacement vibration capabilities to meet the Belcore GR-63 Zone 4 Seismic Testing requirements.

The systems are also used for all types of Mil-Std vibration and shock testing. An example is the shipboard test requirement of Mil-Std-167-1.

Since DTB maintains a hydraulic system in the laboratory, capable of supplying over 600 gpm, both the vertical and horizontal vibration testing facilities can be run together. This results in vibration testing programs being processed through the laboratory in a very timely manner.
