Serviceability analysis for human-induced vertical vibration on pedestrian structures
Civil engineering structures such as grandstands, slabs, footbridges and staircases have reported unacceptable vertical vibration when they are affected by human activities. Even when most of these structures are designed according to current guidelines

Vertical Vibrations of Footbridges Due to Group Loading: Effect of Pedestrian–Structure Interaction
The vibration serviceability of footbridges has evolved from the adoption of a single pedestrian crossing in the resonance condition to load cases in which several pedestrians cross the structure simultaneously.

Effects of material uncertainties on vibration performance of cross laminated timber floors [PDF]
Variety of wood species and complexity of their structure make the reliable material properties of cross-laminated timber (CLT) difficult to obtain, which can lead to inaccurate prediction of CLT behavior.

Nonstructural Partitions and Floor Vibration Serviceability [PDF]
AbstractNonstructural vertical partitions and cladding can have a significant effect on the vibration serviceability of floor systems. A typical modern office building, consisting of steel–concrete composite floor systems, was created to investigate the potential beneficial effects of integrating nonstructural partitions into structural floor systems ...

Floor Vibration Experiment and Serviceability Test of iFLASH System [PDF]
Studies on novel composite structures that can decrease floor height and improve constructional efficiency in order to increase spatial efficiency and lease revenue have been actively conducted. An innovative fire-proof, lightweight, absorbed, shallow, and hybrid (iFLASH) system was developed to solve construction site issues, such as improving ...
