Abstract
Many industrialized nations have created their own standards for determining and grading the dangers posed by ground-borne vibration, notably in terms of human irritation. Excessive vibrations created by trains have an impact not only on individuals, but also on sensitive machinery and buildings. The authority as well as practitioners have critical responsibilities in managing and accessing vibrations. This study discusses the differences between the standard and the limit of vibrations caused by trains that can irritate people. The local standard guideline was compared to the standards used by the US, Norway, Sweden, California, Germany, and the Netherlands. This study was mainly interested in the limitations of vibration velocity in residential settings.
