Dynamic Load on Foundation from Screen
Dynamic Load on Foundation from Screen
(OP)
I am adding a new wood chip screen, and need to design the concrete foundation. I have been given the following from the screen vendor. These loads are typical 4 places.
Fvstatic = 25k
Fhstatic = 5k
Fhdynamic = 1k
I would like to do spread footings.
How do I treat the dynamic load? I know I can not act like it is a just a static load. Any info would be helpful.
Thanks,
Deflected

Most of these are set on shallow foundations, assuming reasonable soil conditions. As 3dd noted, check with the Geotech for soil response characteristics.

Upon further review I think I am actually going to go with Micro Piles. I have some existing footing interferences and space limitations.
