Floor Vibration
(OP)
Can anyone recommend a good reference for analysis of floor vibration for steel bar joists supporting a concrete floor slab? Thanks.
When was the last time you drove down the highway without seeing a commercial truck hauling goods?

Besides increasing mass, try maximizing the joist spacing. The more load per joist the lessor the vibrations. Check with the Architect whether you can have a contact ceiling. That helps too. I prefer a 6 1/4" normal weight concrete slab on composite deck on composite wide- flange steel beams spaced at 6-ft to 8-ft o/c for churches.
