Large structures such as factories, concert halls, bridges, towers and chimneys can be detrimentally affected by vibrations. This book provides structural and civil engineers working in construction and environmental engineering with practical guidelines for counteracting vibration problems. Dynamic actions are considered from vibrations sources such as human body motions, rotating, oscillating and impacting machines, wind flows and road traffic. The main section of the book presents tools that aid in decision-making and in deriving simple solutions to cases of frequently occurring vibration problems.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Great basic vibration analysis book,

This review is from: Vibration Problems in Structures: Practical Guidelines (Hardcover)
This book covers all ranges of structural vibrations in buildings, from machine foundations to external wind loadings. The book is clearly rewritten and not extremely technical, but provides additional sources for more technical requirements. The book also presents ideas for remediation of various types of structural vibrations for existing structures.
I highly recommend this book for both beginning and experienced structural engineers.
