Pump Foundation Sizing

Pump Foundation Sizing

Pump Foundation Sizing

(OP)
Need to know what is the parameter for sizing the weight of concret versus weight of rotating equipment for dynamic stability

RE: Pump Foundation Sizing

If you don't want to do any vibration analysis, make the foundation either three times the weight of the machinery or ten times the weight of the rotating parts, whatever is more.

RE: Pump Foundation Sizing

Good advice from JedClampett. Also suggest going to my website (see link below) and get the appropriate .pdf downloads under "Foundation Design".
