Design Considerations: Comfort and Performance <strong>Floor</strong> System Vibration: • Amplitude is the magnitude of floor vibration. • Amplitude is directly related to the stiffness of the floor (deflection). • High amplitude vibrations are more annoying to people than low amplitude vibrations.
Design Considerations: Comfort and Performance <strong>Floor</strong> System Vibration: Amplitude may be reduced by two methods: • Specifying deeper framing members (joists) • Using bridging between joists • Continuous bridging perpendicular to the bottom flange of the joist is the most effective.
