Handbook of Machine Foundations

CONTENTS:

Handbook of Machine Foundations is a book written by P Srinivasulu and C V Vaidyanathan. It aims at achieving the objectives of acting as a reference manual for practising engineers and research workers. It is a useful textbook for the students in the civil engineering stream.

The book provides an in – depth knowledge of different aspects of design, analysis and construction of machine foundations, which are essential for the designers to achieve efficiency and economy in the design. Along with the basic principles for designing, the handbook has features concepts like vibration theory applied to single, double and multiple – degree freedom systems which are subjected to free and forced vibrations analysis and design of block foundation for machines that are subjected to periodical forces and impact – type forces and evaluation of design parameters by computation and by field testing.

The book also has features like analysis and design of framed foundations meant for high – speed machinery principles and methods of structural isolation of machine foundations design principles of block – type foundations construction details of machine foundations and useful reference data aimed at designers. The book offers illustrative case histories, illustrative numerical examples and sick machine foundations at the end of each chapter. Machine foundations are an integral and expensive part of any industrial complex and this book explains all the relevant concepts related to the machine foundations.
