Vibration Transmission

 When there is an extraordinary source of vibrations, such as a nearby construction site or adverse windy conditions, it is important to measure vibrations in structures, such as buildings and bridges, or on the ground. The reason is to ensure, at the least, that the vibrations do not cause discomfort to people in the vicinity and, more critically, do not damage the structure.

While every structure vibrates to a certain degree, limits should be monitored to ensure the integrity of the material used in the construction, as well as the well-being of people. Given these safety and comfort considerations, many countries have regulations and standards that define these vibration limits in different environments.

A Vibration Monitor is the most common tool for measuring vibration levels.
