Abstract
Vibration serviceability of large-span flexible structures has been intensively investigated in last decades but still needs more effort. In this paper, we put a special concern on the computational model of large-span flexible structures for serviceability assessment based on experimental results of two large-span railway stations at different construction stages. The differences between the model for serviceability and the model for safety are clarified and the main influential factors that a computational model for vibration serviceability should consider are presented. Furthermore, the damping for serviceability is discussed based on laboratory test of a cantilever beam.
