Learn How to Design Foundation Under Vibrating Machines

under concrete foundation and steel deck

Most oil and gas projects, petrochemical, refinery a, power generation project and most other industry have a vibrating machine like pumps, compressors, generators packages. The target of this course you will learn the how to design the concrete foundation and steel deck under the vibrating machines. The dynamic analysis will be discussed. How to define the geotechnical investigation report scope and what is the required soil test specific in case of vibrating machine and what is soil parameters it is required to design. The main question what is the data required from the manufacturer of the machine or from the mechanical engineer to start your design? There is a session clarify and present the guideline which is used to choose the foundation dimensions as per technical practice to have a safe design.

The types of the machines and the differences between the drive and the driven and what its practical types of the machines in the market. how to design each type like centrifugal or reciprocating machines by the preliminary method. The design for a reciprocating power turbine compressor with real example will be cover and also for a reciprocating type. The way of design the steel deck under the vibrating machine will be discuss by a real example of gas turbine generator over the steel deck.
