Session Two Topic: Evaluating Floor Performance
Objectives: Design floors that will meet customer expectations for performance. Participants compare the conventional code (static) approach to floor design with a dynamic approach based on customer performances. Traditional methods gauge the performance of the floor based on uniform, non-moving loads whereas customers gauge floor performance by how the floor feels when they walk, run, or jump.
