Why is there so much vibration in construction?
Unfortunately, misuse of heavy equipment by construction contractor employees is much more common (see Damage Prevalence in the CVDG Pro) than it should be. When misused, or used properly too close to homes and other properties, heavy construction equipment can cause vibration which, in some cases, damages structures.
