Earthquake Tower Simulation

Simulate an earthquake and see its effects on a truss tower structure.

What it can do

  • Build a truss tower structure
  • Run a simulated earthquake shake test
  • See where the structure holds and where it fails
  • Iterate the design based on the results

Used alongside the Earthquake Tower project, this tool lets students build a truss structure and run a simulated shake test — seeing exactly where it holds and where it fails, then iterating the design before building it for real.
