Design Guidline for Block Type Foundation

Design Guidline for Block Type Foundation

Design Guidline for Block Type Foundation

(OP)
Please direct me if you have technical papers, design guidelines and special software that handles design/analysis of block-type foundations supporting heavy vibrating machinery.

 

RE: Design Guidline for Block Type Foundation

ACI 530 is the only thing I know of.  It is general, and not specifically geared toward heavy vibrating machinery.

RE: Design Guidline for Block Type Foundation

proletariat,

ACI 530 is the building code requirements for masonry structures.  You must have mis-remembered the reference.

RE: Design Guidline for Block Type Foundation

There are a few other threads on this - I might not have the name spelled right - but Aryas or Arias has a book on it.  Fang (2nd edition) has a nice chapter.  And then, there is Richart Hall and Woods, Barkan, etc.
