Presented in this paper is a field study on the vibration performance of lightweight cold-formed steel floors. The floors investigated were constructed with different framing methods and construction details, and were tested in either partially or fully finished conditions. The current design practice and the appropriate criteria of vibration serviceability for lightweight floors are discussed. The floor construction details, test methods, and together with the test results are summarized. Based on the vibration criteria recommended for lightweight cold-formed steel floors, the test results show that all the floors investigated in this study demonstrated satisfactory performance against vibration due to human walking. |
