Page 245 and Chapter C Appendix C page E-10 of ASCE 7-05 discusses
serviceability and vibrations. Somewhat subjective.

Subject: Vibration Acceptance Criteria

I've go a machine. It causes vibration of my structure. The amplitude is
slight, but is it acceptable?

What tells me the definition of "acceptable"?
