Machines and equipment operations and certain types of activities can generate vibration levels that could cause human discomfort and damage to buildings and structures.
The sources of vibration include blasting from explosives on mining and construction sites; construction equipment; trains; mechanical plant and equipment in residential, commercial and industrial buildings; health/fitness clubs and swimming pools in hotels and commercial buildings.
It is important to obtain advice during the early phases of projects to isolate and control vibration as retrofitting can be very expensive and may not be practical.
