Physical modeling has long been established as a powerful tool for studying seismic pile-soil-superstructure interaction. This chapter presents a series of 1-g shaking table tests aiming at clarifying fundamental aspects of kinematic and inertial interaction effects on pile-supported systems. Pile models in layered sand deposits were built in the laboratory and subjected to a wide set of earthquake motions. The piles were densely instrumented with accelerometers and strain gauges; therefore, earthquake response, including bending strains along their length, could be measured directly. Certain broad conclusions on kinematic and inertial SSI effects on this type of systems are drawn
