Transportation Industry Testing
Manufacturers of equipment and components in the Transportation Industry are challenged with the requirements to validate their equipment under harsh operating conditions. These challenges are combined with the government regulatory oversight, competitive cost conditions and the advent of external environmental drivers. Companies that operate in the Rail, Trucking, Bus and Recreational Vehicle industries are keenly aware of these challenges. Clark support these manufacturers to ensure product certification and equipment reliability under these extreme conditions.

Clark Highlights
Seismic OSHPD Testing
California’s Office of Statewide Health Planning & Development requires products to pass unique and intense seismic testing under ICC Evaluation Service acceptance criteria. Due to the state’s geology, the OSHPD requires that tests be performed according to soil class and seismic profile. We tested the above 9,000 lb., 15(l) x 5(w) x 12.5(h) ft. unit for soil class D at an SDS level of 2.50, translating to an AFLX-Horizontal level of 3.2 g and -Vertical level of 1.68g. The table can generate up to 5g on units weighing 2,000 lbs. and has an overall capacity of 20,000 lbs., making it one of the largest triaxial seismic tables in the world.
