Vibration and impact sound properties of hybrid steel-timber floor structures KU Leuven
Lightweight floor structures, such as timber or hybrid timber floors, face challenges associated with excessive vibrations and elevated levels of low-frequency impact sound. Especially here, accurate prediction of a floor’s vibration and acoustic behavior is essential. However, typical laboratory testing of building elements is costly and time-consuming. To reduce costs, in this study, adapted simulations are carried out on two types of hybrid ...
