ExNET > Exhibits > Group 8 > Shake Table

To study the effects of earthquakes on structures, visitors mechanically recreate these natural disasters using an earthquake simulator or shake table. Visitors build a structure with uncooked spaghetti and small marshmallows, and then shake it up! How tall was your structure? How long did it last on your shake table?
