Example problems & answers in construction vibrations

These two problems from Chapter 2 -- Ground Strains from Plane Wave Approximations-- demonstrate the low level of stress induced by passing ground motions.

These two problems from Chapter 10 -- Frequency Based Control of Construction Vibrations -- demonstrate the equivalency of Response Spectra and Fourier Frequency Spectra. Graphical answer to Prob. 10-3 & 10-4a. graphical answer to Prob 10-4b. The graphs emplyed to display the answers were produced by NUVIB.
