Machine Base Frame Design: Hand Calculation of Total Load [Static + Dynamic] on Foundation of Rotating Assemblies.

Module 1: Total Load Calculation on Foundation

• Main Factors to be Considered for Rotating Assemblies
• Static Load: Self-weight of machine, frame, accessories
• Dynamic Load: Unbalanced force formula ( Most Engineers Wrongly Calculate Dynamic Load )
• How to calculate Total Design Load = Static + Dynamic x Service Factor

Module 2: Stresses in Frame by Calculation. Design Base Frame.

• Hand calculation of Bending Stress, Shear Stress & Torsional Stress in Base frame
• How to calculate section properties of fabricated frame
• Deflection criteria for rotating machines - Why stiffness is more important than strength

Module 3: Each Frame Component's Contribution

• How Length & Width of frame members actually take load
• Role of Longitudinal vs Cross Members

Module 4: Boundary Conditions & Load Definitions [For FEA & Hand Calc]

• How to correctly define Fixed, Simply Supported & Elastic Supports
• Where to apply loads - Bearing locations vs CG
• Common mistakes in FEA that give wrong results

Module 6: Common Design Mistakes Done by Engineers

• Mistakes every designer does in Base Frame Design
• Case studies of failed frames and how to correct them
