Sponsored by the Energy Division of ASCE. The design of
turbine-generator foundations requires advanced technical expertise
in structural engineering and soil dynamics, as well as close
collaboration with manufacturers, mechanical and electrical
engineers, and plant designers. Various manufacturers have
different requirements for such foundations, and application of
code provisions can demand a significant degree of interpretation.
Concrete Foundations for Turbine Generators: Analysis, Design, and
Construction provides the practical assistance needed by structural
engineers and facility owners to meet these challenges with the
most up-to-date and reliable information available. This Manual of
Practice addresses the design of three types of concrete
foundations for turbine generators: block foundations, with
pedestals, piers, and blocks supported on a common mat foundation
(basemat); elevated space-frame pedestal foundations, with columns,
walls, and a tabletop supported on the basemat; and foundations
where equipment or structural elements are supported on a
vibration-isolation system. Topics include turbine generator
equipment, foundation layout and sizing, foundation loads and load
combinations, modeling of soil and pile response to dynamic loads,
finite element modeling, serviceability analysis and acceptance
criteria, strength and stability design, embedded items,
vibration-isolated foundations, and construction considerations.
Three appendixes on dynamic impedance discuss soil-supported rigid
foundations, pile-supported foundations, and calculation examples.
MOP 136 delivers state-of-the-practice guidance on
turbine-generator foundations for structural design engineers,
operating company personnel responsible for establishing structural
design criteria and construction standards, and local building
officials.
