“E-Defense” is a 3-D full-scale earthquake testing facility. Shake tests at the facility can observe and investigate strength of various types of buildings against earthquakes. “EDgrid Central” system supports storing and publishing experimental data of the shake tests, by the IT technology. The system enables civil engineering researchers to access the experimental data securely through the Internet. The researchers can share results and reports of analyses of the experiments with researchers of various fields, and would promote their collaboration.
