The paper describes seismic experimental programs that have been recently conducted in the new Hydro-Quebec Structural Engineering testing facility at Ecole Polytechnique of Montreal, Canada. A shake table test setup has been developed for multi-storey building models and testing has been completed on full-scale two-storey steel frame/wood sheathed shear wall and reduced-scale eight-storey reinforced concrete shear wall models. Seismic dynamic testing of large scale roof deck diaphragm specimens and real time dynamic sub-structuring testing of seismic dampers and isolators for bridge structures are also described. The test setup used for the multi-axis testing of rectangular bridge piers subjected to bi-directional seismic loading is discussed. Future expansion of the multi-directional testing capability of the laboratory is introduced.
