The author studies stability of a structure (platform) on a pile foundation using physical modeling. Disturbing force is applied by a pendulum to generate seismic impulse vibrations. The measurement data on displacements of two points on the platform surface are used to find a platform incline under variable number of impacts, impact energy, distance to the impact point and the platform weight.
