    ground vibration

    Hi Frank, Glad to get a chance to talk with you. This is an unusual situation. Most construction/blasting vibration situations I hear about are two or more story structures with most damage on the upper levels. This is an earth home, single story dwelling with ground level about 0.6 meters...

    ground vibration

    Thanks Hatch - I appreciate your advice. But I have a problem - it's something I left out of my original question. The construction was completed almost a year ago!! So, I guess what I need is a lead to something more theoretical that I might use to estimate effects. Thanks again!

    Thanks Hatch! That's what I thought. BUT, do you have any idea how to quantify it????? Later!

    ground vibration

    I need to know the effect of a bedrock layer on transmital of ground vibrations caused by a vibratory compactor used in road construction near a house. I hope someone here has some experience with this type of vibration application. Thanks!!!
