Vibro-Acoustic Response of Buildings Due to Sonic Boom Exposure: June 2006 Field Test

During the month of June 2006, a series of structural response measurements were made on a house on Edwards Air Force Base (AFB) property that was excited by sonic booms of various amplitudes. Many NASA personnel other than the authors of this report from both Langley Research Center and Dryden Flight Research Center participated in the planning, coordination, execution, and data reduction for the experiment documented in this report. The purpose of this report is to document the measurements that were made, the structure on which they were made, the conditions under which they were made, the sensors and other hardware that were used, and the data that were collected.
