Loading Data
Design of structures / foundations supporting heavy vibrating machinery shall be based on dynamic analysis using manufacturers loading data, which shall include: weight of machine and ancillary equipment speed of machine position of centre of gravity of machine in the three major planes out of balance forces and moments (primary and secondary speed where needed) line of action of out of balance forces inertia of driver and driven in the three major planes short circuit / emergency failure forces and moments Dynamic analysis of foundations shall include calculation of amplitude and frequency for all six (6) degrees of freedom (3 x translational modes + 3 x rotational modes). Foundation amplitude limits shall be as specified by the equipment vendor but shall provide a factor of safety of not less than 1.5 compared to Figure 3 of CP 2012:Part1:1974. Besides the above data, a static design shall take account of a static horizontal (longitudinal or lateral) force of 25% of a static horizontal weight acting at shaft level and a static vertical force of 110% of machine weight, caused by erection loading impact. These forces shall not be considered as acting simultaneously.
