6 ConclusionsThis report has described the aims, procedures and execution <strong>of</strong> a series <strong>of</strong>experimental tests conducted on a <strong>full</strong>-<strong>scale</strong> 3D <strong>steel</strong>-<strong>concrete</strong> composite frame structuresubjected to pseudo-dynamic and cyclic testing at the European Laboratory for StructuralAssessment <strong>of</strong> the Joint Research Centre. Together with its annexes, it should provideresearchers with a thorough understanding <strong>of</strong> experimental data and enable formulation <strong>of</strong>the modal analysis <strong>of</strong> the <strong>full</strong>-<strong>scale</strong> <strong>steel</strong>-<strong>concrete</strong> composite frame. Nevertheless, it mustbe borne in mind that the accuracy <strong>of</strong> any dynamic model that can be formulated fromexperimental data is affected by the accuracy <strong>of</strong> the testing equipment.REFERENCES- Braconi, A., Bursi, O.S., Ferrario, F., Salvatore, W., 2003a.
