DAMAGE DUE TO VIBRATION

SKADLIG INVERKAN AV VIBRATIONER

The report contains six lectures held at a symposium aranged by the Swedish Geotechnical Institute. The items are: 1. Ground vibrations and their harmful effects - influence of vibratory compaction equipment. 2. Ground vibrations generated by trains - their influence on buildings and people. 3. Road traffic - induced vibrations. 4. Safe rock blasting. 5. Vibrations - damage and responsibility. 6. Relation between traffic-generated vibrations, their frequencies, particle motion displacements, velocities and vehicle speeds. See IRRD Abstracts Nos. 214778 to 214782 for summaries. /TRRL/
