Abstract

Traffic-induced vibration is one of principal problems for residence in urban area. Mid- and low-rise steel-framed buildings sometimes pose problem related to vibrations caused by road traffic as a principal road, a highway or a railroad. Traffic-induced vibration influences on habitability in the building . Especially on the three story buildings, habitability under horizontal vibration on top floor was reported. Factors of the problems are 1) vibration perception of a resident in a building, 2) dynamic property of a building, 3) predominant frequency of ground vibration, 4) frequency characteristic of vibration source. Each factor affects each other. In this paper, each factor is analyzed in order to get a knowledge for design of a low-rise steelrftamed residential building subjected to horizontal vibration.
