Dynamic loads-on base frame due to rotating parts

(OP)
Dear Friends, please let me know how to calculate dynamic load due to roataing equipment(e.g.Motor) on base frame anchor bolts. Please tell me the procedure or any reference books.

RE: Dynamic loads-on base frame due to rotating parts

The NAVFAC (Navy Facilities Design) manuals have a section on foundations for rotating machinery that will tell you how to calculate the load.  It is a free download so do a google search and you can find them.




 

RE: Dynamic loads-on base frame due to rotating parts

Blodgetts' Design of Welded Structures some discussion on converting horsepower to Torque.  The book has the formula;
T = 63,000 x HP/RPM.

For a turbine - generator the support structure was designed for a 10 times Torque Load.
