VIBRATION PROBLEMS OF AN EXAMPLE OF TEMPORARY STEEL GRANDSTAND UNDER HUMAN-INDUCED EXCITATION
PublicationLighter and slender structural members of a typical grandstand leads to a significant reduction in the frequencies, that is why such structures are more easily induced to vibrations. The aim of the present paper is to show the results of our experimental studies and the numerical analyses, focused on the behaviour of a part of a typical temporary steel grandstand under dynamic loads. The peak values of accelerations of a steel...
