  • That's full scale? Wow

  • @paladin696969 The reason the flower boxes are there are to make it look more realistic. After building the house and announcing the test would take place, the media was interested and showed up for the final tests. As a result, SEESL, NEES, and MCEER, the groups in charge of this felt pressured to add flower boxes, and to fully furnish the inside of the house. I know all this because I attend the University at Buffalo. See this site for more info.

  • @GeorgeT50 I can assure you that house is a full size two story house, the opening on the left is the garage, where two cars will fit. I attend the University at Buffalo where this test took place.

  • @paladin696969 Now you know that flower boxes will fall and maybe hit someone on the head in the event of an earthquake.

  • whats the point of the flower boxes?, is that really going to make a difference to the test results!

  • FULL POWER!!!!

  • lol that house is so small should be a single house haha

  • it looks so small tho lol
