Structural Serviceability: Floor Vibrations

Journal of Structural Engineering, 1984
Floor vibrations arising from normal human activity may affect the serviceability of modern building structures, which are becoming lighter and more flexible. Existing serviceability criteria for floors are reviewed in the light of research dealing with human perception of structural motion.

In-Service Tire Vibration Investigation

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1973
An experimental research program has been initiated to measure and correlate the sound and vibration spectra of in-service truck tires. The objective of this work is to obtain a detailed bank of tire sound and vibration data that will aid in a better understanding of tire noise generating mechanisms and how they are influenced by important parameters ...

Slender Monumental Stair Vibration Serviceability

Journal of Architectural Engineering, 2009
This paper presents the results of an experimental and analytical study of a slender monumental stair. The objective of the study was to gain insight into slender stair vibration issues and provide guidance for the design of such stairs. A slender monumental stair was vibration tested to estimate modal properties and acceleration due to walking.

Vibration serviceability of Helix Bridge, Singapore

Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers - Structures and Buildings, 2016
Helix Bridge is a key feature of the iconic Marina Bay Sands development in Singapore. It usually functions as a pedestrian link between the Esplanade and Sands Casino/Hotel, but is occasionally used as a viewing platform for events in Marina Bay that have centred on a small purpose-built stadium opposite the bridge. To supplement the stadium capacity,

Glass Suspension Footbridge: Human-Induced Vibration, Serviceability Evaluation, and Vibration Mitigation

Journal of Bridge Engineering, 2021
Abstract Glass suspension footbridges or glass-bottomed suspension footbridges, such as the Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon Glass Bridge in China, are increasingly constructed in scenic regions as tourist...

A probabilistic description of footbridges vibration serviceability

PAMM, 2009
AbstractVibration serviceability of pedestrian bridges is considered. Imperfections in the human walking force are described as changes in walking factors. Probability distributions of walking frequencies, step length, and amplitude of walking force are taken into account. The imperfections can influence the level of footbridge vibration response.

Vibration serviceability for pedestrian bridges

Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers - Structures and Buildings, 2006
The response of pedestrians to lively bridges is one of the problems that has to be addressed in the scope of analysing serviceability. The excitation process by walking and/or running and the sensitivity of the human receiver both have to be understood as random variables. The present paper analyses the expected scatter of the response of pedestrians

Vibration Serviceability Assessment of a Residential Building

Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2014
According to the vibration in a residential building, a field investigation was conducted. Using the elimination strategy, the primary vibration source was determined, the vibration serviceability of the residential building was assessed by the environmental vibration tests, and the measures for vibration reduction were proposed.

Vibration serviceability performance of timber floors

European Journal of Wood and Wood Products, 2015
Vibration serviceability of timber floors is becoming increasingly relevant due to their increased long-span applications in pure timber and hybrid structures. As a serviceability limit state, the check of acceptable floor vibrations is part of some current timber design standards.
