February 25, 2015 HALF-DAY SEMINAR

Date: Feb 25, 2015

Vibration of Reinforced Concrete Floor Systems

 
Presented By:  Mike Mota, Ph.D., P.E., SECB, F.ASCE, F.ACI, F.SEI This half-day seminar will assist the design professional in choosing an appropriate reinforced concrete floor system for situations where the effects from vibration must be considered. Provided will be simplified methods to determine key vibration characteristics of reinforced concrete floor systems that can be used to evaluate whether anticipated vibrations will be acceptable or not. Covered are flat plate, wide-module joist, two-way joist and voided slab systems subjected to walking and rhythmic excitations. Guidelines for sensitive equipment are also provided. Worked-out examples illustrate the use of the methods. 
 
The presentation is based on the new CRSI publication titled Design Guide for Vibrations of Reinforced Concrete Floor Systems.

This seminar is an NCSEA diamond approved seminar for .4 CEUs or 4 Professional Development Hours (PDH).
