    Default Dynamic analysis - footfall analysis??

    Hi guys,

    Good day to all.
    I hope somebody can give me an idea to what can I do,
    I am analyzing a 36m span x 70m long suspended basketball court. (see attached)
    I ran footfall analysis using Robot and found no problem on it, since the peak acceleration is well below the limit set by SCI and AISC.

    Now my boss want to know what will be the effect of the whole crowd(entire floor) assuming all of them are jumping at the same time. To what i know footfall will not cover this. Any idea on what can i do?

    Thanks!

    PS(apologies on the attachement, it's saved on excel)

    Late answer - but may be useful for others.

    Harmonic or FRF analysis may be useful for it:
