ETH Zurich: Europe’s largest capacity research centrifuge put in place
The most capable geotechnical research centrifuge in Europe is currently being built on the Hönggerberg campus. It will enable researchers to simulate geotechnical structures, such as foundations, dams and tunnels, and the effects of natural hazards, such as earthquakes, landslides, flooding and tsunamis. The centrifuge itself was installed on Wednesday with meticulous precision.
The start of the installation process back in August was a spectacle in itself, with workers taking just under an hour to lift a 245 tonne circular concrete chamber by crane and place it in the ground of the inner courtyard of the HIF building from a height of 25 metres.
