IS 2974 | Part 1 to 4 | Draft documents | Session 81

INTRODUCTION

SQVE STRUCTURAL SUMMIT

BIS has circulated draft documents of IS 2974 (Part 1 to 4) for design of machine foundations. With the rapid industrial expansion, the installation and efficient operation of heavy machinery have gained critical importance. Machine foundations are designed considering the dynamic characteristics of the machinery, as specified by the manufacturer, along with the dynamic properties of the foundation and the underlying soil or pile system. It is widely recognized that these dynamic properties of the soil or pile system play a key role in ensuring the desired performance of the foundation system.

Advancements in manufacturing technology have led to machines with higher ratings and tighter operational tolerances, making reliability critical and leaving no room for failure. To ensure optimal performance and minimize downtime, machine foundations must be designed with special attention to both their own dynamics and the need to reduce vibrations impacting nearby structures. Detailed vibration analysis is essential for understanding the dynamic behavior of the machine-foundation system. Field data on machine failures suggest that current design practices must be updated to address evolving dynamic requirements and improve foundation performance.

To cater to these objectives, it was decided to overall revise and restructure various Parts of IS 2974 to meet the current demand of satisfactory performance of machines with no room for failures. While restructuring various parts of the code, it was decided to address the parts of the code foundation-wise rather than machine-wise, except the part covering foundations for impact and impulsive load machines, that is, hammers and presses, where the foundation has to be necessarily machine-wise.

Part 1 General provisions
Part 2 Block foundations
Part 3 Frame foundations
Part 4 Foundations for hammers and presses

To discuss these important documents, live discussion is organised on 14-SEP-24 at 8:30pm IST. The session will be conducted by Bhavin Shah (Founder & CEO, SQVe Consultants)

Overall aim of session is to increase awareness about IS codes and to encourage engineers for sharing their valuable comments to BIS for improvement in our national standards.

Dhirender Singh Bisht

I am pursuing masters in structural engineering and steel was the topic that I found always challenging since my B.Tech times. Moreover this is also a missing topic for the syllabus of many universities in masters program. To understand its theory ,and execute it practically in software is really challenging and need a mentor for that. I’ve been following Bhavin sir from last few months and was it was my good decision to choose him as a guide. By the course STEEL-STR-001, now I can feel that I am in a position to explore boundaries of IS code, and also I’m enthusiastic to see how Euro code, AISC code and other countries code tackles the problem which sounds to be complicated in IS code.

The course WIND-STR-002 is very much informative as well as useful for practicing engineers considering the non availability of easy to detailed literatures and practical examples.

REVA VENU V M

I am a budding geotechnical engineering professional. For three years I have worked as faculty in NIT and recently joined as project fellow- geotechnical engineering in a research Institute. Now I am in the transition phase of my career ie, shifting from academics to industry. My desire to become a geotechnical engineering consultant inspired me to join this course. As I don’t have much industrial exposure, attending the course GEO-STR-001 helped me to gain a lot of practical knowledge related to geotechnical engineering. Especially the discussions related to soil investigation, interpretation of soil report and interactive sessions were really amazing. Queries of other participants and the discussions associated with it,were really informative, as it mainly focussed on current industrial practices. Thank you Vivek sir and Bhavin sir for giving this wonderful opportunity. Hoping for a better support in my future endeavours too. Also expecting further courses related to this, in the coming future.

Foundation failures Geotechnical Engineering Structural Engineering structural failure

Session 77: Foundation Failures

INTRODUCTION

SQVE STRUCTURAL SUMMIT

RC foundations are the most important elements in any type of structure, as they transfer all the loads that come on the superstructure to the ground below. RC foundations are designed such that the safe bearing capacity of the soil at the site is not exceeded, to have adequate safety against sliding, overturning or pull-out and to keep the total and the differential settlements within allowable limits. Foundation failures are difficult to rectify and may endanger the entire building. In addition, as foundations will be buried inside the ground, it is difficult to monitor or repair them.

Failure of foundations may occur due to poor soil conditions, improper
drainage, changes in the water table, tree roots, construction errors, weather conditions or expansive soils. If any foundation failure is noticed or suspected, it is important to have the foundation inspected by a qualified geotechnical engineer and remedial measures undertaken. Soil failures are classified as bearing capacity failures, bulging or swelling of soil, sliding, liquefaction and lateral spreading. Foundation engineers are urged to study such failures, in order to not repeat such mistakes in their own projects.

It’s essential for both geotechnical and structural engineers to maintain open communication and address any discrepancies or uncertainties in the geotechnical report promptly. Regular collaboration and a thorough review process can help identify and rectify potential mistakes before they impact the structural design and construction process.

In the session, Dr. Subramanian Narayanan will join with us and he will share few case studies related to the foundation failures. We will also discuss few of the relevant points received from the participants either through registration form or through live chat during the session.

Schedule

DATE : 30-MAR-24

Last but not the least, Dr. Gupta was kind enough to give me the charges of highlighting the errata for the Explanatory Handbook on Wind Engineering.

The course STAAD-STR-001 was really amazing an knowledgeable. As I fresher I gained so much knowledge about all the little things I didn’t know that were so much important. Troubleshooting of the software was the most important topic as a single wrong interpretation of the warning can totally change the outcome. I heartily thanks Shri Bhavin bhai and SQVE consultants for introducing such wonderful courses so that we can perform good in practice.

I really enjoyed throughout the journey of the course STEEL-STR-001 wherein I improved by Fundamental Knowledge in the Design of Steel Structures. Bhavin Sir’s explanation on Lateral Torsional Buckling and other critical areas, really helped me to become sound in manual calculations. Keep continuing the good work!

I would like to thanks and appreciate for this helpful course comprising of STAAD PRO Training and Design concepts for RCC and Steel. In this module I have learned in detail about essential concepts for designing industrial buildings and gained an understanding of different types of Analysis. I also acquired the knowledge of different types of Codes. Moreover, l was introduced with FEM, design of foundation, anchor bolts and connections. All the sessions were very interactive and engaging. The valuable knowledge that i have gained in these two months will certainly be propitious to start my career as a structural engineer.

The course GEO-STR-001 effectively addressed the gap between geotechnical and structural engineer. It not only covers important interface areas but also discusses consequences of poor interface. Subject experts have in depth knowledge and experience to address expectations of various participants ranging from fresh engineering graduate to highly experienced professionals. The course is interactive and experts are more than willing to address any queries of the participant. The course content is appropriately divided into multiple sessions over the weekend to allow flexibility to participants to participate and reflect during the week at their convenience. Overall, this course is highly recommended for structural and geotechnical engineers for gaining and enhancing the understanding of the very important interface between geotechnical and structural engineering work.

I heard somewhere that we shall never use STAAD for dynamic analysis. But that wrong interpretation of the software was cleared through the course : STAAD-STR-001.

BHARATENDU PATEL

This course related to STAAD.Pro and case studies was beyond the conventional software training. It helped me conceptualise the idea behind the behaviour of any structure, understand the special requirements between steel and concrete structures. Real life case study and interactive sessions made the learning more impactful.

Ravichandra

STEEL-STR-001 is very wonderful course. I have learned many things through this course. During session Bhavin sir interaction with the participants is very great with clear explanations. We are expecting these type of courses in future also.

Rajashree

The course WIND-STR-001 facilitated discussion and understanding of concepts  in more detailed simplified manner under the experienced and knowledgeable professionals. Thank you Dr Abhay sir and Bhavin sir.

Dhirender Singh Bisht

I am pursuing masters in structural engineering and steel was the topic that I found always challenging since my B.Tech times. Moreover this is also a missing topic for the syllabus of many universities in masters program. To understand its theory ,and execute it practically in software is really challenging and need a mentor for that. I’ve been following Bhavin sir from last few months and was it was my good decision to choose him as a guide. By the course STEEL-STR-001, now I can feel that I am in a position to explore boundaries of IS code, and also I’m enthusiastic to see how Euro code, AISC code and other countries code tackles the problem which sounds to be complicated in IS code.

Srinivasa Reddy

Dear Sir thank you so much for your Course ETABS-STR-001. We learn Lot from here. Happy to Join this Course we are waiting for next Upcoming Courses.

Mohd Ameen Irfan

Bhavin Sir is very experienced and expert in his field, He made the topics in online course STAAD-STR-001 very clear from the scratch and also addressed every student’s queries and problems very nicely!!!

D. Nivetha

The Staad Pro Training sessions were extremely fruitful, informative and it gave deeper insights into the field of structural engineering. Bhavin sir had not only taught us the software of Staad Pro, but he had explained us several technical concepts based on his field experiences. It was an interactive session where sir had asked us questions and it helped us think a lot and come up with solutions. Overall, it’s been a great experience and this 25 day of training has taught me a lot and has inspired me to develop greater passion towards civil engineering.

Praveen Upadhyay

Bhavin Shah is a fantastic trainer, very friendly and encouraging, it was a well-delivered and presented course (STAAD-STR-001) that was well received by the group. There was a great balance between theory and practice and the concepts were clearly and professionally explained.
