The assessment of the seismic behaviour of industrial products is a strategic activity that helps to ensure the safety of structural and non-structural elements used in areas at risk of earthquakes. The activity is focused on the analysis and the assessment of the seismic behaviour of structural components, such as insulators and dampers, and non-structural components produced using industrial or industrialisable processes. This is fundamental to ensuring the reliability and safety of products intended for use in buildings and infrastructure subject to seismic risk.
Operating in institutional and commercial settings, this work encompasses a broad spectrum of services, from applied numerical research to full-scale or laboratory experimentation. Research is primarily conducted in response to requests from institutions such as the Civil Protection Department, the ReLUIS consortium, and the European Commission. At the same time, our accumulated expertise enables us to support Italian and international companies in developing, prototyping and seismically qualifying their products.
Eucentre’s laboratory has obtained the role of notified body for the performance of triaxial seismic qualification tests according to the main internationally recognised standards (see normative list), as well as Accredia accreditation according to EN 17025:2018. The laboratory’s activities also include developing and implementing innovative structural monitoring systems integrated with Eucentre’s cloud platform.
