How many ways are there to fix equipment at the bottom?
This post was last edited by jizhanwei22 on 2018-10-18 12:01 with the title “Fixing method at the bottom of stationary equipment”? Upon closer examination, the OP’s description of the issue isn’t very professional. What the original poster is asking is probably, how many ways are there to support static equipment? Generally speaking, static equipment is divided into vertical and horizontal types. The support methods for vertical static equipment include leg supports, ear supports, supporting brackets, rigid ring supports, skirt bases, etc. There is also another type of vertical static equipment, namely those with a flat bottom, which can be placed directly on a foundation. If the height-to-diameter ratio of the equipment is relatively high, anchor bolts can be installed at the outer edge of the equipment’s bottom plate. (Whether anchor bolts are needed depends on detailed calculations based on seismic and wind loads.) There is only one common method of supporting horizontal static equipment, namely horizontal supports. See the figure below for details:
Does it refer to anchor bolts or something else?
He was asking how many types of anchor bolts there are
What types of structures are available at the bottom of vertical flat-bottom equipment for fixing purposes, such as the use of foot bolts?
