The relationship between dynamic loads and static loads

Thread Content

When I checked the dynamic load factor for equipment, I have never seen a dynamic load factor that is less than 1； And by looking at some Excel sheets used to calculate the dynamic loads on water pumps, it can be seen that the formulas for calculating dynamic loads are based on the static load plus some other calculations; therefore, the result obtained from calculating the dynamic load already includes the static load. The equipment supports only need to withstand the calculated dynamic load, rather than the sum of dynamic and static loads? For example: if the ball mill has a capacity of 40T and the dynamic load coefficient as per the table is 2.5, then the dynamic load amounts to 100T (1000KN). Should the equipment supports be designed to withstand 100T or 140T? (The safety factor in structural calculations is not relevant; the structural engineering team will take that into account.)
