Pedestrian load models of footbridges
Original language description
In this paper the pedestrian load models for serviceability verification of footbridges, which are missing in the current European codes, are presented. For simplicity reasons the proposed pedestrian load models are based on stationary pulsating loads instead of moving pulsating loads. It is shown that simplified procedure can be used in verification of the serviceability limit state related to vibration due to pedestrians. Footbridge vibrations don’t cause usually structural problems, but if the vibration behaviour does not satisfy the comfort criteria, changes in the design or damping devices could be considered. The most popular external damping devices are viscous dampers and tuned mass dampers (TMD). The efficiency of TMD is demonstrated on the example of a footbridge prone to vibrations induced by pedestrians.
