The purpose of this study is to establish a measurement method to get vibration characteristics of membrane structures. An impulse hammer or a vibration exciter has been used to measure the vibration response of constructions and mechanical systems, but this method is not appropriate to apply the impulse force for the membrane structures due to its lightness and flexibility. Consequently, non-contact impulse excitation is applied by using laser excitation system and is suitable for the vibration measurement of the membrane structures. The proposed method makes the precise measurement of the frequency response in wide frequency range possible. In this study, mode shapes of the membrane structure are investigated by the vibration testing system using the non-contact laser excitation and the non-contact vibration measurement with LDV.
