This paper examined building vibrations by different sources, namely forced harmonic vibration, earthquake vibration, and wind vibration. Analytical methods to identify natural frequency and damping ratio were developed. When buildings were excited by forced harmonic vibration, response of buildings can be characterized by their steady-state response. The dynamic property of buildings were estimated from the calculated transfer functions. When buildings were excited by earthquakes, vibrations after strong motion duration can be treated as free vibration and the dynamic characteristics calculated by the proposed Spectrum Parameter Method. When buildings were excited by wind forces, the spectrum of the free vibration of buildings can be calculated from the proposed Spectrum Superposition Method, and the dynamic properties be derived by the Spectrum Parameter Method.
