Floor beam deflection limit to avoid vibration
Floor beam deflection limit to avoid vibration
(OP)
Hi,
We know that code gives a max deflection limit (for example L/240 for D+L) but I have had beams (specially longer spans)whaich had been designed based on L/240 but there was vibration there.
What would be your recomendation for limiting the deflection of floor beams (wood or steel) to avoid annoying vibration but in the same time to be reasonable as far as economy and cost.
Thank you!
Nick

Timing has a lot to do with the outcome of a rain dance.
