8.5 Foundations
Introduction
All main plant structures i.e. Transformer Foundations, buildings and foundations
for the distillery/ethanol plant and machinery, all plant and non-plant buildings for
the integr ated plant and other Misc. Buildings will be suppor ted on RCC
foundation - isolated, combined or r aft and/or pile foundations. Machine
foundations for Compressors, BFP and misc. pumps and equipment foundations
will be supported on RCC foundations - Isolated or Block foundations and/or pile
foundations. Pile foundations will be pr ovided, if r equir ed, by the soil
investigation report.
Design
The foundations will be designed for the most critical combination of forces and
moments, resulting from all the possible combinations of the various loading from
the str uctur al system. The effect of water table will be consider ed and the
foundation will be checked for overturning for minimum and maximum vertical
loads. There should be no uplift under any portion of the foundation for any
loading condition. The foundation sections will be sized and r einfor ced
adequately for bending moments and shear stresses. A levelling course of plain
cement concrete will be provided before casting the foundation.
8.6 Machine Foundations
Introduction
This section outlines the design philosophy & construction aspect for foundations
for large equipment as follows:
a) All major foundations for the distillery and ethanol plant
b) Compressor foundations
c) All Miscellaneous machine foundations
General
A necessary requirement for all rotating machinery is that it should be properly
supported. Thus the foundation becomes an impor tant element of machine
installation. It has to resist both static and dynamic forces exerted by the machine
and transmit these to the ground. In doing so, it is responsible for smooth running
of the machine by ensur ing that amplitudes ar e limited to values that ar e
permissible for the machine and for local environment, including structures and
people.
EPC Bid Document for Ethanol Plant at Sugauli, Dist. East Champaran, Bihar, Technical Specifications
67
The foundation must have sufficient structural strength to withstand all applicable
forces and most severe combination of individual load cases that result in the
maximum foundation loading for any conceivable set of normal or abnormal
circumstances. Spring supported foundation shall be provided for low frequency
machines, wherever the same are required from technical consideration.
Design Parameters
The data required for the analysis and design of machine foundations may be
listed as under:
a) Loading diagram showing static and dynamic loads on the foundations, points
of application of loads, area over which these loads will be distributed etc.
b) Operating speed of the machine
c) Capacity or rated output of machine
d) Critical speeds of the machine
e) Geometric limitation
f) Opening limitations, depressions, projections etc.
g) Details including sizes and locations of anchor bolts, pipe sleeves, inserts,
embedded parts etc.
h) Layout and distribution of pipe lines, ducts etc. and their supporting details
i) Temperatures in various areas during operation
j) Mass moment of inertia
k) Allowable amplitudes at the machine bearing points, etc.
l) Tolerance in bearing and clearances of various components
Loads
The loads to be considered for analysis and design are:
a. Static loads of the stationary components of the entire assembly along with the
static weight of rotating parts.
b. Dynamic loads from start-up torque.
c. Loads on foundation resulting from admissible forces and moments of pump
nozzles.
d. Loads on pedestal top due to installation and maintenance.
e. Any other for ces/loa ds which equipment EPC Contr a ctor consider s
applicable.
EPC Bid Document for Ethanol Plant at Sugauli, Dist. East Champaran, Bihar, Technical Specifications
68
Analysis & Design
The analysis and design of machine foundations will be carried out to ensure the
following:
a) Compliance with the manufacturer s requirements.
b) No resonance phenomenon of a disturbing nature to machine operation should
exist at the normal running speed.
c) Calculations to be performed for dynamic as well as static cases for reinforced
concrete block type pedestal.
Foundation Sizing
The outline plan dimensions of foundations will be given by the machine EPC
Contr actor . The height of founda t i on wi l l be sel ect ed a ft er t a ki ng i nt o
consideration soil strata and operating level of the machine. The eccentricity of
common CG of machine and foundation with respect to the centroid of base
area/pile group should not exceed 3% of the corresponding base dimensions of the
foundation.
In order to reduce the horizontal amplitudes, the height of foundation should be
selected as small as possible. A larger base dimension should be selected in the
direction of rocking moment, if any, acting on the foundation.
Compressor Foundation
The Compressor is a machine of reciprocating type. This is a low speed machine
and pr oduces unbalance for ces dur ing oper ation, causing vibr ation in the
foundation. Excessive foundation vibrations may cause settlement or damage to
the foundation-machine system and also a feeling of discomfort and uneasiness to
the personnel. Compressor foundation shall be isolated from the close slab and
other foundations
Vibrations are also transmitted through the ground. Ground vibrations may be
minimized by providing trenches all around the foundation up to a suitable depth.
Miscellaneous Machine Foundations
For the large variety of other types of machines there are numerous foundation
designs and the most suitable one will depend on the particular application.
Foundations for pumps, etc. are usually in the form of solid block foundations,
resting on the undisturbed strata.
EPC Bid Document for Ethanol Plant at Sugauli, Dist. East Champaran, Bihar, Technical Specifications
69
At machine supports supported on the finished floors, floor may be thickened and
extra reinforcements provided. Also, the machines, which are almost vibration
fr ee and ar e ver y light to moder ately heavy, may be suppor ted in the above
manner . Rubber or neopr ene pads may have to be used under some of these
machines to reduce transmission of vibrations to the supporting floor.
8.7 General Design Considerations
The design of various civil and structural works will be done as per relevant
I ndian Standar d and sound engineer ing pr actices to meet the system and
functional requirements.
Design Loads: Design loads for all structures will be determined according to the
criteria described below.
Dead Loads: - Dead loads will consist of the weights of the structure and all
equipment of a permanent or semi-permanent nature including tanks, wall panels,
partitions, roofing, piping, drains, electrical trays, bus-ducts. Dead loads will be
determined using the weight from IS-875 (Part -1).
Live Loads:- Live loads will consist of uniform live loads and equipment live
loads. Uniform live loads are assumed unit loads which are sufficient to provide
for movable and tr ansitor y loads, such as the weight of people, por table
equipment and tools, equipment, or parts which may be moved over or placed on
floor s dur ing maintenance oper ations. These unifor m live loads will not be
considered on floor areas which will be permanently covered with equipment.
Equipment live loads are calculated loads based upon the actual weight and size
of the equipment and par ts to be placed on floor s dur ing dismantling and
maintenance or to be tempor ar ily placed on or moved over floor s dur ing
installation. F loor s and suppor ting member s which ar e subject to heavy
equipment live loads will be designed on the basis of the weight of the equipment
in addition to a uniform load of 500 kg/m, or specifically defined live loads,
whichever is greater. Each member in the floor which may carry these loads will
be designed for the heaviest piece or pieces of equipment arranged in the most
cr itical position. For loads caused by moving equipment over the floor for
installation, consideration will be given to the shoring of beams and floor from
floor s below. When moving equipment over floor s for insta lla tions a r e
considered, stress increases of 25 percent are permitted in beams and columns.
Wind Speed: The design wind speed will be based on IS: 875 (Part - 3). This
design wind speed will be used to determine wind loads for all structures.
Seismic Zone: As per IS: 1893-2002
EPC Bid Document for Ethanol Plant at Sugauli, Dist. East Champaran, Bihar, Technical Specifications
70
Design Loads
Dead Loads
Dead load will comprise of the following and will be computed as per IS: 875
(Part-1). Following will be considered for evaluation of dead loads:
i) An uniform 150/200 mm thick RCC slab wherever concrete floors are
provided
ii) An uniform floor finish of 50 mm laid over RCC slab
iii) Other area flooring will consist of removable grating/chequered plate or
50 IPS.
iv) Beams & columns as per actual size
v) Wall/cladding loads
vi) Self weight of supporting structure/facilities
Imposed Loads
I mposed loads will include minor equipment loads, cable tr ays, small pipe
racks/hangers (not exceeding 250 Kg/m) and also loads dur ing er ection,
operation & maintenance.
Actual plant loads coming on the floor area occupied by the equipment will be
calculated and compared with the superimposed loads given above. Higher of the
two will be adopted for analysis and design.
Steam Piping Load
As per static/dynamic analysis for steam piping, the loads super imposed on
structure by piping hangers and at the restraint points will be considered as
a dvised by piping Contr a ctor . However , pipe dyna mic for ces at hanger
location/restraint points will be considered not to act simultaneously with seismic
forces in that plane.

columns/foundations as per provision of IS: 875 and lateral crane surge of 10% of
lifted weight and trolley weight will be considered in the analysis of the frame.
The longitudinal surge will be 5% of the static wheel load. Each of the crane
girders will be analyzed for the moving loads and for half the total surge loads on
each gantry girder.
Wind Loads
The basic wind pressure will be taken as IS: 875(Part-III) and combination of
wind loads with other types of loading will be done according to provision of
IS:875 (Part-V). The basic wind speed of 50m/sec. up to height of 10metres above
