Experimental Investigations and Numerical Simulations of the Vibrational Performance of Wood Truss Joist Floors with Strongbacks

This paper provides an experimental study and computer modeling analysis of vibration performance of full-scale wood truss joist floors, related to the static deflection and vibration mode/frequency and single-person-induced vibration. The vibration behavior of full-scale truss joist floors was inve...

The vibration behavior of full-scale truss joist floors was investigated and the influences of the strongbacks on the vibration behavior were assessed. The results showed that the simulated predictions agreed well with the measured results. Strongbacks do not significantly affect the fundamental frequency of the truss joist floors but influence the second and third modal frequencies. The use of strongback rows at mid-span effectively decreased the maximum deformation of point loading at floor center. The effect of adding strongbacks at one-third of each span on decreasing maximum deformation at the floor center was minimal. The case of walking parallel to the joist produced higher acceleration response at the floor center than that of walking perpendicular to the joist.
