4.1.3.6.(2) | Application | Intent |
OS2 | OP2 | OH4 |
Objective | OS2 Structural Safety |
Attribution | |
Application | Application 1: Effects of resonance for structural systems supporting assembly occupancies used for rhythmic activities,
such as dancing, concerts, jumping exercises or gymnastics, where the fundamental
vibration frequency is less than 6 Hz.

Intent | Intent 1: To limit the probability that the dynamic structural effect
of dynamic forces from rhythmic activities on floor systems, whose fundamental
vibration frequency is such that large resonant vibrations are likely to occur,
will not be taken into account in the design of the supporting structure,
which could lead to structural failure, including structural failure caused
by fatigue, which could lead to harm to persons. |
