The paper presents the methodology of the analysis and the results obtained from simulation studies, which included an assessment of the impact of vibrations generated by means of transport on a designed residential building. To conduct the simulation studies, the FEM computational environment and proprietary software based on standard Matlab libraries were used. The obtained calculation results were compiled in third-octave bands and compared with the values permitted by national normative acts, and the results of the full dynamic analysis were compared with the relevant strength properties.The impact of paraseismic vibrations, the source of which are means of transport, carries a number of adverse effects for the immediate surroundings[1,3,4,5]. Vibrations usually generated at the wheel-road or wheel-rail interface are transmitted to the ground, from where they are propagated in the form of paraseismic waves to neighboring engineering structures, residential buildings, or public utility sites.
