1.2 INTRODUCTION
CONTROL EXCESSIVE DEFLECTION AND VIBRATION
• Excessive deflection and vibration have a great influence on structural design
– Advent of stronger materials
– Lighter construction
– More rigid cladding
– Smaller damping
– Longer spans
– More accurate strength calculation (take into account the interaction of building components)
• Code approach to control excessive deflection and vibration:
limiting the member deflection under specified load to certain ratio of the Span L

EXAMPLE
SOLUTION
MINIMUM FLOOR FREQUENCY
Based on Table D-4, Min. natural frequency of 6.5 Hz for satisfactory performance of the floor.
SOLUTION
MAXIMUM DEFLECTION OF THE FLOOR STRUCTURE
Based on EQUATION (2)
MAX. FLOOR DEFLECTION Δ = (18 / fn)2 = (18/6.5 Hz)2 = 7.7mm
Corresponds to SPAN/3900 (30m / 7.7mm ≈ 3900)
Very difficult for a 30-m span to achieve
SOLUTION
CLOSER ESTIMATION OF MINIMUM FLOOR FREQUENCY
Based on EQUATION (4) and (5)
SOLUTION
Damping Ratio (β)
Based on NBC 2015 Commentary D Item #10
β = 0.06 for concrete floor
SOLUTION
For floor frequency of less than 2.7 Hz, vibration due to first harmonic resonance
Based on Table D-2, α1 = 0.5

SOLUTION
OPTIONS TO ACHIEVE ACCELERATION LIMIT
Based on Table D-3, Acceleration Limit for the floor is around 2%
SOLUTION
OPTIONS TO ACHIEVE ACCELERATION LIMIT OF 2% (CONT’D)
OPTION #1
Based on Figure D-4, a floor frequency of 5.3 Hz is needed
Based on EQUATION (2), Max. deflection Δ = (18 / fn)2 = (18/5.3 Hz)2 = 11.5 mm
Corresponds to SPAN/2510 (30m / 11.5mm ≈ 2510), still not easy to achieve
SOLUTION
OPTIONS TO ACHIEVE ACCELERATION LIMIT OF 2% (CONT’D)
OPTION #3
Alternatively, an FEM dynamic analysis to determine floor frequency might indicate
that, without the extra concrete, a 5.3 Hz limit is achievable.
