Ground vibration consideration is gaining significance with people’s
decreasing tolerance of vibration, introduction of new environmental
legislations, increasing use of equipment sensitive to vibration, ageing
of existing buildings and expanding construction sites to/near
collapsible/liquefiable/thixotropic soil.
This volume bridges the gap
that exists between rather limited provisions of engineering
codes/standards and complex numerical analyses/small-scale tests.
The
book contains descriptions of ground vibration measurements,
predictions and control for engineers. Effects of most frequent sources
of ground vibration arising from construction/demolition, traffic and
machinery, ground wave amplification and attenuation as well as
foundation kinematic and inertial interaction have been considered by
simplified analyses aimed at ease and speed of use for major problems in
ground vibration engineering. Comments on assumptions, limitations, and
factors affecting the results are given. Case studies and examples
worldwide are included to illustrate the accuracy and usefulness of
simplified methods. A list of references is provided for further
consideration, if desired.

Audience: This work is of interest to geotechnical engineers, engineering geologists, earthquake engineers and students.
