Building Vibration Design
Response Transmission
(Isolation) Source
•! Structural stiffness and natural frequency key to response
•! Mechanical plant vibration depends on isolation, run speed, structure, distance & balance.

How to fix problems Don’t get it wrong in the first place.
Fix – time consuming, expensive, source vs. path. Prevention: •! Poor Specifications •! Poor Design •! Lack or Training (engineers, owners
and installers)

How to fix problems Don’t get it wrong in the first place.
Prevention: •! Poor Specifications •! Poor Design •! Lack or Training (engineers, owners
and installers) Specifications -! Refer to ASHRAE at a minimum -! Require selection based on actual
loading -! Specify inertia bases as required
Design -! ASHRAE normally acceptable -! NEBB Sound and Vibration Design
& Analysis -! Detailed finite element

Key points
•! Use ASHRAE as a starting point (coordinate specifications with ASHRAE)
•! Design isolation where critical •! Inspect (hard to check isolation efficiency) •! Test (if necessary) •! Teach contractors – springs ain’t springs!
