In recent years building floors become larger and more spacious due to the development of new design methods and high strength and light weight materials. However, such long span floor systems may provide smaller amount of damping and have a longer period so that they may be more vulnerable to the floor vertical vibration. In Korea when floors are to be checked against the floor vertical vibration, the provisions developed in foreign countries have been used. However these guidelines have been developed based on human perception, which may vary from country to country. Also, Korea have particular floor systems, such as flat plate floor system of apartment building. This study attempts to evaluate the vibration performance of the floors in typical apartment buildings. Two different floors with the area of $28 m^2$ and $32 m^2$ were investigated. The criteria provided by ATC-1(1999), AISC-11(1997), AIJ(1991) and the local criteria developed in the previous study(Han, 2003) was used to check the acceptability of the floor vertical vibration.

층간소음의 대부분의 원인이 아이들 뛰거나 발걸음으로 나타나고 있어 층간소음 저감을 위한 선행 연구로 층간소음의 주요 충격원인 보행 행위에 대한 정밀한 연구가 필요하다. 성인 보행 충격력과 그에 따른 바닥충격음을 계측하여 보행하중이 바닥충격음에 영향을 주는 요소를 분석하였다. 보행하중 중 발 뒤꿈치 충격력은 전체 충격하중을 주파수 특성을 대변할 수 있는 임펄스 형태의 하중으로 충격력은 뱅머신 또는 고무공보다 낮지만 1 차 영점(First zero)이 80Hz 정도로 높아 유효 가진 주파수 대역이 표준 중량충격원 보다 높았다. 구조물과 수음실의 고유모드 특성으로 인해 외부 충격에 대한 구조체 진동 및 음압의 공진 현상이 발생되기 때문에 공진 성분이 포함되는 바닥충격음 레벨은 순수 충격력 특성인 보행 또는 표준 중량충격원의 옥타브 밴드 충격력 폭로레벨과는 전혀 다른 주파수 특성을 나타내었다.

In current design practice, the thickness of the floor slab has been determined to satisfy requirement for deflection control. However, previous study shows that the floor thicknesses in residential buildings may not satisfy the floor vibration criteria, even though the thickness is determined by the serviceability requirements in current design provisons. Thus it is necessary to develop the procedure to determine slab thickness that satisfies the floor vibration criteria. This study attempts to propose slab thickness for flat plate slab systems that satisfies floor vibration criteria against occupant induced floor vibration(heel drop load). Two boundary conditions(simple and fixed support), three square flat plates(4, 6, 8m), and five concrete strength($18\~30$ MPa) are considered. Since there are large uncertainties in loading and material properties, probabilistic approach is adopted using Monte-Carlo simulation procedures.

The possibility to development of floor vibration problem is larger in case of long span structure under service loads. Therefore, to improve the vibration performance of the floor, increasing of its thickness is a common method. But, increasing of thickness can lead to increase of slab self weight and reduce the effectiveness of the building. For this reason, attention for voided slab which reduces the self-weight is increasing. Hence, voided deck slab combined with deck plate and polystyrene void foam which has buoyancy prevention capacity and much developed construct ability has bee developed. By using the developed voided slab, vibration performance of a mock-up building structure has been investigated in the current study. The results according to analysis showed that they can be implemented in living and bedroom which are considered as 1st grade on the basis of "Residential Evaluation Guidelines for Vibration of Buildings" by the Architectural Institute of Japan.
