Eucentre is a non-profit private law foundation whose mission is to conduct research and provide training and services in earthquake and safety engineering 
Eucentre promotes science, research and innovation for the benefit of the community, offering targeted methodologies and concrete solutions for prevention, safety and resilience. It collaborates with institutions and companies to disseminate competencies for the common good.
Shake-tables
Other test systems
Eucentre carries out research activities in earthquake engineering and risk reduction through laboratory testing and numerical analysis, aiming to improve the seismic performance of structures and soils and to develop innovative seismic retrofitting techniques.
The Foundation promotes diverse and high-quality training activities aimed at academic and professional contexts, with constantly updated and innovative programs and initiatives designed to meet the evolving needs of the sector and society 
Eucentre ensures communication aimed at informing institutions, professionals, and citizens about ongoing activities and projects, with the goal of disseminating useful and accessible content and knowledge. It contributes to promoting a shared and informed culture of prevention and resilience.
The 6-degree-of-freedom Shake-table was primarily developed for dynamic tests on non-structural elements and seismic tests on structural systems characterised by limited mass. Its cellular steel structure is designed to provide high overall stiffness while keeping mass to a minimum, ensuring compatibility with the stresses generated during testing.
This configuration optimises dynamic performance and enables highly accurate reproduction of seismic signals, making the table ideal for studying the seismic behaviour of building and plant components, even in the presence of complex multi-axial inputs.
