Effects of Footfall Induced Vibrations on Concrete and Composite Floors

Leing, Chuen Keit / Mohammed Parvez, Anwar / Elleithy, Wael

This paper investigates the effects of footfall induced vibrations on the floors of a 3-storey sub-frame structure. Composite and concrete floors were examined. Variables involved are floor widths, floor thicknesses, floor aspect ratios and column heights. Models are generated and analysed using the finite element method. The vibration responses were represented in terms of displacements and accelerations. Results show that higher vibration responses occurs on longer floor widths, thinner floor slabs and higher floor aspect ratios for both composite and concrete floors.
