How to submit civil engineering requirements for unbalanced equipment
Thread Content
As shown in the diagram, the equipment is supported on a steel structure, with 2 legs; its total weight is 32 tons. Due to unevenness, how should the civil engineering requirements for this equipment be specified? What are the calculation methods?
The manufacturers of such equipment will indicate the center of gravity of the equipment on the drawings, and the load distribution will be calculated based on that. The civil engineering requirements only need to specify the equipment’s own weight, operating weight, water filling weight, as well as the dimensions of the equipment’s base plate, the layout of the foundation bolts, and whether vibration is present. Finally, it is necessary to attach the manufacturer’s documentation for submission to the civil engineering team
Equipment manufacturers also seek the calculation method.
It should be a relatively simple force analysis problem
The manufacturer only provided the total weight, without giving the distributed load. The structure also shouldn’t be made too large, and it can’t be arranged in a uniform manner, which is a bit confusing.
You work with equipment and still don’t know?

Structurally, there is a problem with the way you’ve represented this leg； The design of the tank also needs to take into account the layout of the leg loads; this approach is incorrect ；
