Abstract
As some of the newer LRT projects get closer to research facilities the question arisesi ‘‘how do you assess the potential impact of train operations on the activities within these types of facilities?’’ There are several new LRT projects that have proposed alignments near or under university research facilities. The traditional ground vibration analysis at these locations is no longer valid but requires a more sophisticated approach to identifying both criteria and impact. APTA, ISO, IES, and FTA vibration criteria may not be adequate for the most sensitive activities involving single cell and nano technology research. The use of existing ambient vibration levels is evaluated as a potential criteria. A statistical approach is used to better understand how the train vibration would affect the ambient vibration levels.
