Dynamic Response of Buildings and Structures due to Microtremor Part 2: Construction Works – Pile Driving Effects

Operation of construction equipment causes ground vibrations which spread through the ground and diminish in strength with distance. The construction vibrations should be reduced by planed and controlled use of construction machinery. We studied the effect of the construction vibration in the Bratislava Airport buildings caused by sheet piles driving near the operated Airport building and site of new terminal building.
