Design of cross-laminated timber (CLT) floors for human-induced vibrations
Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is an innovative engineering wood product made by gluing layers of solid timber boards placed in an orthogonally alternating orientation to the neighbouring layers. CLT panels provide an efficient solution for floors in single and multi-storey buildings. Due to their lig...

| description | Cross-laminated timber (CLT) is an innovative engineering wood product made by gluing layers of solid timber boards placed in an orthogonally alternating orientation to the neighbouring layers. CLT panels provide an efficient solution for floors in single and multi-storey buildings. Due to their light weight and often long-span, the design of these floors is generally governed by serviceability limit state criteria, that is, deflection or vibration limits. Vibrations induced by dynamic actions, such as people walking and their everyday activities, cannot result in structural failure but may cause discomfort to occupants if vibrations are not properly controlled. This paper gives an overview of some available methods for the vibration serviceability design of residential CLT floors. Differences between these methods are discussed through the consideration of criteria and their limit values. Although some criteria are common to certain methods, it may happen that the same criteria take into account different factors. In order to get a better description of the actual behaviour of floor structure, certain classifications of floors based on vibration serviceability performance were introduced in design methods. |
