Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The most accurate damping characteristic is the coefficient of relative damping in analyses using the first and second soil base models.

  2. 2.

    The damping coefficient for steady vibrations depends for all practical purposes on the soil base type and the backfill height, the actual energy absorption being smaller than the value recommended in SNiP II-19-79.
