Question
Design the foundation for a gas engine with a vertical cylinder ond
vertically oscillatıng parts, for the following data:
1. Total weight of engine
4500 kg.
2. Speed of rotation
3. Unbalanced vertical force
= 260 r.p.m.
= I tonne
4. Base dimensions of the engine = 1 m x 2.5 m
5. Elevation of machine base above ground
= 1 m
Weak silty sand exists to a depth of 0.5 m followed by a dense sand to a depth
of 6 m. The unit weight of moist sand is 1.7 t/ m.
