Abstract
Measurement of ground vibration is important for checking of amplitudes of predicted ground motion and for confirmation of efficiency of control measures of ground vibration. The properties of measuring instruments used can affect the results of measurements and therefore the user need to know how to select these properties in order to obtain correct results for a particular case of interest.
