- SEI engineers rely on their extensive experience in structural dynamics and design to mitigate potential or known vibration problems in buildings
- New Structures: Design for adequate stiffness, wherever possible, to
minimize response to expected or known sources of vibration or
incorporate vibration control where necessary
- Existing Structures: Identify source(s) of problematic vibration and
develop vibration mitigation solutions to minimize the response
- Develop and implement cost-effective vibration control concepts for new and existing structures where required
- Typical vibration control options:
- Vibration Absorber: A mass-stiffness system designed to "absorb" vibration from the space
- Vibration Isolator: An elastic interface designed to prevent vibration generated in one area from affecting adjacent usable spaces
