Why haven't I seen this before now?? Such a great video, and really a great idea to implement movement in the y axis! Love to see my idea being evolved further than my imagination, deserves more views than this!
I'm new to this, but would love a small group of my students to build this, while others create the buildings. Can you tell me what sets I would need to buy to build one of these simulators please? Many thanks
Great video, but your methodology is wrong :( By weighing the top you greatly lowered the resonance frequency, and high frequency of the engine does not really affect the top. If you lower engine speed, the building can still collapse. That weight on top isn't made for prolonged shakes like in the video, it's just a pendulum and source of energy, if at resonance frequency the catastrophe will always happen. Instead the weight is made to flatten a *short* shake. Even if the shake is a wave at resonance frequency, but is a short spike, the weight is made to store most of the received energy and dissipate in it time (after shaking is finished). The key here is that the shake should be SHORT in time.
How on earth do you not have 1 mil subs yet? Your content is awesome! :)
I subbed

The video is reminding you to simulate seismic activity in the Z-axis direction!

Richtig cooles Video 👍👍👍
So during the earthquake we have to climb upstairs to save the building as well as ourselves 🤔
Some buildings are already designed with a hidden pendulum weight for this purpose so you don't have to dangle yourself 😅

Wow this is great
Great engineering work show
Thank you!
Wow great Video,
Glad you enjoyed it!

3:40 tf are these noises
You exaggerate too, if I were a lego, I would go out first :D
