Cold-formed steel (CFS) joists and trusses have high stren gth-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 ot her human activities. This webinar will raise awareness of the importance o f vibration serviceability by describing two forensics projects with lively CFS floors. The literature contains several floor vibration evaluation met hods 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.
Th is webinar is for architects, engineers, building officials and contractors .
Web-based seminar using "Go To Meeting" technology.< /p>
1+ hour of lecture, followed by discussion and ques tions. (1.5 hours total).
