Question Paper
Draw the typical section of Machine foundation. Explain the various types of Machine foundations.
Explain briefly the importance of soil dynamics in machine foundation.
2. The exciting force of a machine is 120 kN. Determine the force which shall be transmitted to the foundation system, if the natural frequency of machine foundation system is 5 Hz. The damping factor 0.40, and the operating frequency Hz.
Explain the following terms:
Single Degree Freedom System
Natural Frequency
Resonance
Why is it difficult to control low frequency vibrations?
What are the various effects of dynamic loads on slope stability and bearing capacity of soil?
Briefly explain Barkan's method of Machine Foundation Design.
5. Discuss the design criteria in the design of Reciprocating machines as per I.S. Code.
6. Explain in brief the dynamic response of retaining walls. Derive the equation of total active thrust in active earth pressure conditions.
7. What are the characteristics of seismic waves? Explain the various types of seismic waves with suitable sketches.
