I´m a Portuguese junior civil engineer and I'm developing a research on building codes with dimensioning criteria that contempt floor vibration under human and/or equipment action and I've only found the AISC. Where can I find other codes that focus this issue?

Thank you for any help you can provide

Try checking the Canadian Codes. I know they have some floor design guidelines that were based on floor vibration research. Also check out wood floor joist and sheeting manufacturers (Trus Joist for one) websites. Or Most of this will pertain to wood residential flooring, but might lead to more information for you.
