Michael Willford and Peter Young have over 30 years combined experience in the area of structural dynamics. The methods presented in this guide have been developed by them over the last 10 years and have been used extensively within Arup for the past 5 years.
A Design Guide for Footfall Induced Vibration of Structures
A Design Guide for Footfall Induced Vibration of StructuresA tool for designers to engineer the footfall vibration characteristics of buildings or bridges
M R Willford CEng MIMechE
P Young CEng MIMechEWhilst footfall induced vibrations on buildings or bridges is not normally signifi cant in terms of structural integrity, footfall vibration can be a critical serviceability condition. This publication presents a new method for evaluating the vibration due to a single pedestrian walking on a fl at surface, such as a fl oor slab or bridge deck. The method was developed by Arup, and has been calibrated and refi ned with verifi cation measurements taken on completed structures over a period of ten years.
This publication provides an informative description of the factors effecting footfall induced vibration and guides the engineer through the process of designing for vibration. It includes fl owcharts for calculation procedures and a useful glossary. It also includes worked examples on a concrete footbridge, a low frequency multispan post tensioned concrete fl oor and a high frequency ribbed slab.

AcknowledgementsThe authors would like to acknowledge the contribution of their colleagues at Arup to the validation of the methods described in this guide, in particular Caroline Field, Kathy Gubbins, Kubilay Hicyilmaz and Mark Arkinstall. Professor Aleksander Pavic of Sheffi eld University also provided additional validation data from his own independent research projects. The authors would like to thank Dr Stuart Kerr for providing the data which is the basis of the footfall forces used here.
Finally, special thanks are due to Professor Tom Wyatt of Imperial College London, who was the independent peer reviewer for this document.
