Firstly, using field testing, the vibration characteristics of the buildings, wavespropagation laws and influencing factors of structural vibrations nearby the trackline induced by moving trains are studied. Then, the traingroundtrench and barrierbuilding coupled dynamic model is established to analyze the influences of four structural parameters, such as the trench depth, the trench length, the distance from the trench to the building and the filledin materials, on the effect of isolation of the traininduced vibrations. The esults show that the structural vibration induced by moving trains is lowfrequency vibration; and the structures have attenuating functions to the highfrequency vibrations. Higher train speed, longer length of the train, and heavier load will induce larger structural vibrations. The increase of structural vibration level shows zigzag tendencies with the increase in floor elevation. The changes of trench depth, the trench length, the distance from the trench to the building and the filledin materials have large influence on
the vibration isolation effect.
