To improve the reliability of the structure under the severe earthquake, many shaking table tests have been conducted. In the shaking table tests, the test model on the shaking table was excited by the acceleration wave. In the shaking table test, it is important to account for the input energy and work by the shaking table on the test model. From an energy point of the view, the input energy of the shaking table test is discussed.
