Abstract Profiled Steel Sheet Dry Board (PSSDB) composite panel has been proven to be an effective structural system and can be exploited for a variety of structural purposes. As a flooring system, the PSSDB floor carries the out of plane bending and shear mainly in the direction of corrugation of profiled steel sheeting. For such flooring system, human induced vibrations are becoming increasingly vital serviceability and safety issues. In this paper, investigations are carried out on the vibration performances of the PSSDB floor panel. This research is focused mainly on the fundamental frequency of such floor panel. The influence of various board types, board thickness, and connectors spacing on fundamental frequency are evaluated. It was shown that for all the panels considered in this paper, the fundamental frequency was well above 8 Hz and hence, this type of composite floor panel will not be uncomfortable to the occupants of building in terms of vibration.
