This paper presents basic experiments conducted to develop a structural system which reduce structural vibration caused by train-passage. The system under consideration is vibration-control devices inserted between foundations and a superstructure. In order to specify the ability of the system, a precast concrete experimetal building suportted on those devices was constructed above the actual railroads and vibration measurements were conducted. Through the experiments, several characteristics of the structural system necessary to reduce train-induced vibration were clarified.
