Abstract:
Wood truss joist floors are increasingly used to replace traditional solid timber joist floors in low-rise timber houses. An understanding of the vibration performance of wood truss joist floors is critical for the design and serviceability of the floors. It is difficult to model wood truss joist floors accurately because of the complicated boundary conditions and numerous sophisticated flexible connections. This paper discusses three simplified modeling methods for the wood truss joist floor system. The modeling results were validated by a series of static deflection tests and vibration modes

Abstract:
The National Building Code of Canada 1990 specifies the allowable spans for lumber floor joists that are expected to lead to satisfactory vibrational behaviour. This paper discusses construction methods that improve the floor behaviour once the flooring and joists appropriate to a particular building occupancy have been selected. Laboratory tests on full-size floors demonstrate that adding between-joists bridging and supporting all four floor edges significantly improves the overall vibrational performance of wood floors. Bridging consisting of solid blocking glued to the underside of the floo

Abstract:
It is well known that the vertical vibrations of lightweight timber floors would cause discomfort to the occupants. As a new kind of flooring system, the metal-plate-connected timber truss joist floors were developed due to their larger spans and easier crossing of pipes and cables after sawn timber and I-joist floors. In this paper, the vibration modes and transfer functions of sixteen metal-plate-connected timber truss joist floors over a nominal span of 6 m were determined experimentally to measure the changes in vibration frequencies and transmissions obtained after the installation of str

Abstract:
Uncomfortable vibrations is a serviceability limit state that must be taken into account in the design of residential floors. A finite strip analysis of a floor system, previously developed for static loads, is extended to dynamic problems. This analysis is applied to the problem of transient vibrations set up by a footfall impact, considering two persons on the floor: an impacter and a receiver. The floor response at the receiver's location is utilized in conjunction with human vibration tolerance data to determine a floor dynamic rating. The variability in this rating is assessed as a functi

Abstract:
The composite opened web steel joist supported floor systems have been common for many years. It is economic and has light weight and can embed the electrical conduit, ductwork and piping, eliminating the need for these to pass under the member, consequently eliminate the height between floors. In order to study the joist strength capacity under the various conditions, it had been fabricated seven joists composed of the steel and concrete slab connected to the top chord by shear connectors (headed studs). These joist have 2820 mm length c/c of the supports and 235 mm overall depth. In the pres

Abstract:
Ten mode shapes, natural frequencies, and modal damping values have been measured for a steel-joist concrete-slab floor spanning 32.1 m. From ambient vibrations and steady-state shaker tests the frequency of the fundamental mode was determined to be 3.5 Hz, and the modal damping ratio to be approximately 1% of critical. A comparison of vibration criteria in Appendix G of CAN3-S16.1-M84 confirms satisfactory performance for walking, but for other rhythmic exercises disturbing vibrations developed. These occurred primarily at the forcing frequency of the exercises and not at floor resonance freq
