This study aims to assess the dynamic behaviour of steel-concrete composite floors when subjected to human rhythmic activities, specifically the practice of aerobics, from the point of view of human comfort. This evaluation is required due to the increasing of the structural problems associated with excessive vibrations, related to structural systems designed with low levels of damping and low natural frequencies, close to the excitation frequencies associated with human rhythmic activities. The investigated structural system is composed by a steel-concrete composite floor subjected to aerobics. The proposed analysis methodology adopted the usual mesh refinement techniques present in the finite element method (FEM) simulations implemented in the ANSYS program. The loads applied on the floor, related to aerobics, are simulated using two different dynamic loading models. An extensive parametric analysis was developed on the investigated structural model and the system dynamic response was obtained, based on displacement and accelerations values, and compared with the recommended limits by standards and design criteria. The studied floor dynamic response violated the human comfort design criteria and indicated levels of excessive vibration in the investigated dynamic loading cases along this dissertation.
