Harmful vibration effects of constlUction operations occur frequently. Ground vibrations may affect adjacent and remote structures. The level of structure vibrations depends on a number of factors such as characterized sources of vibrations, soil conditions, and susceptibility of structures. There is no unique solution to minimize the effects of construction vibrations at every site. Monitoring and control of construction vibrations are made to be in compliance with safe vibration criteria. Reasonable vibration criteria should be chosen for a site.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
