Abstract:
Criteria derived orginially for walking vibrations in long-span steel joint floors with concrete deck are applied, with some adjustments, to long-span concrete floors. Field stuides of two precast and one cast-in-place floor system are used to verify criteria and to estimate vibration parameters.
