Abstract/Additional Information

This report presents the Finite Element (FE) analysis conducted by the Waterways and Concrete Dams Group 1. The FE analysis was performed for Shake Test Model Configuration 1 (March 30th, 2016) conducted at UCSD. Displacement and moment results from the FE analysis were compared to the measured displacement and moment output from the shake table test.
