Data for Vibration serviceability of a GFRP railway crossing due to pedestrians and train excitation

The vibration levels remained low under all conditions, demonstrating that this particular type of GFRP bridge is suitable for railway crossings and that further optimisations may be available to designers while meeting vibration serviceability limits. However, consideration of the loadings suggests GFRP bridges may be more susceptible to higher pedestrian harmonics than traditional structures, and that vibrations from train buffeting are likely to be a design consideration for future bridges over high speed lines.<br><br>Data record consists of a zip archive, organised by subfolders according to test type, and an accompanying readme file.

Two types of data are included: Modal testing – conducted in the factory and on site, and Response testing from walking in the factory conditions and train passes in service. Each subfolder has a ReadMe file containing details of the data files. All data is provided in .txt form
