and Equipment(1) Subsonic, open-jet wind tunnel with 1.8-meter (m) by-1.8-m (6-foot (ft) by 6 ft) cross section and a 13.4
m/s (44 ft/s) speed range (Figure 1).Figure 1. Subsonic, open-jet wind tunnel.(2)Subsonic, closed-circuit wind tunnel with
25.5-cm by 25.5-cm (10 in by 10 in) cross section and a 40.2 m/s (132 ft/s) speed range.(3)Two-DOF (degrees of freedom), large-scale,
active-turbulence generator (computer controlled).(4)Three-DOF motor-driven sensor traverse system (2.4 m by 2.4 m (8 ft by

pressure-scanning systems with a total of 256 pressure ports.(9)Two high-speed data acquisition systems for lab use (average
64 channels per system).(10)Thermo-Systems Inc. (TSI) hot-wire and hot-film velocity sensors.(11)Pitot-static velocity probes
(various configurations) and numerous stand-alone pressure transducers (various ranges).(12)Thirteen non-contact laser transducers
to measure displacement.(13)Extensive bridge and highway structures model inventory.(14)Bridge plan and drawings library.(15)Unique
