Webinar on Vibration Serviceability of Floors with Cold-Formed Steel Framing
Continuing Education Credits Available – 1.5 PDH Credits
Cold-formed steel (CFS) joists and trusses have high strength-to-weight ratios and good overall economy, so they are popular choices for floor framing members. As is the case with most types of floor systems, CFS floors are potentially susceptible to vibrations due to walking and other human activities. This webinar will raise awareness of the importance of vibration serviceability by describing two forensics projects with lively CFS floors. The literature contains several floor vibration evaluation methods that might be applicable to CFS floor. However, unlike other materials, there is not a widely accepted and practical vibration evaluation method for CFS floors. Potential evaluation methods will be discussed.
