Quantification of Dynamic Excitation Potential of Pedestrian Population Crossing Footbridges by Stana Žcaronivanović, Aleksandar Pavić

“…Consequently, the vibration serviceability of these structures under human-induced dynamic loading is becoming their governing design criterion. Many current vibration serviceability design guidelines, concerned with prediction of the vibration in the vertical direction, estimate a single response level that corresponds to an "average" person crossing the bridge with the step frequency that matches a footbridge natural frequency. …”
