24 Figure 4: Shear-flexure interaction for a wall subject to lateral loading. (adapted from Massone and Wallace, 2004) 24

25 Vertical LVDTs Diagonal LVDTs 25

26 The rotation for flexure was taken at the base of the wall (so the top displacement is multiplied by the wall height), which is the largest value expected for flexure. If we assume that the flexure corresponds to a rotation at wall mid-height, the flexural component should be multiplied by 0.5. 26

27 3 triaxial sensors 27

28 Torsion and rocking Rocking about the x axis = orientation of shear wall (corresponds to shear wall cracking) NOTE CHANGE IN SCALE FOR X- AXIS ROCKING 3 triaxial sensors 28

44 Understanding building modal behavior Building modeling and more advanced system identification (e.g., transfer functions) to obtain better modal properties (e.g., damping, mode shapes… if possible) Test rigid diaphragm assumption using sensor redundancy on floors (e.g., comparing floor center motions using different subsets of sensors) Comprehensive building modeling in SAP 2000 or equivalent software packages Data sharing at the NEES platform 44

45  Airport regulations (invitation letters, label equipment as non stationary)  Trigger and record mechanisms (set minimum recording time vs. EQ duration + Dt)  Instrumentation cabling (<100m, Power supplies)  Time Frame (aftershock span)  Local collaboration (building access, installation, translations)  Equipment Transportation (luggage vs shipping)  Take Pictures of every sensor with reference on it…. 45
