Structural

Without experience with large vibrating machine, I was required to design the SUPPORT of the legs of a 100 tons "single toggle jaw rock crusher" to be placed on RC structure. Base on horizontal thrust(5,000lbs) and vertical force (fluctuate 30,000 to 70,000lbs) of each leg during operation, kindly enlighten SUPPORT DETAIL, and advise whether resilient pad works. Thank you alls.
