Design of founDations for Dynamic LoaDsSummary Outline

PURPOSE AND BACkGROUND

Soil dynamics is the branch of soil mechanics which deals with the behavior of soil and foundations under dynamic loads. Operation of rotary machines or hammers, and earthquake ground motions constitute a class of dynamic loads that usually challenge engineers in their design of different kinds of foundations. The main goal of this seminar is to provide a better understanding to practicing engi-neers and architects of the design and evaluation of foundations under this class of dynamic loads.

Topics to be discussed include:

1. Basic Principles of Soil Dynamics: Fundamental distinctions between static and dynamic problems; basic notions of soil dynamics; the nature of different types of dynamic loads; the significance of soil-structure interaction; dynamic soil properties.

2. Dynamic Properties of Shallow and Pile Foundations: Impedance functions of foundations and pile groups; definition of stiffness, and damping, for circular shallow foundations and piles; non-circular shallow foundations; mathematical models for pile analysis.

3. Rotating Machine and Hammer Foundations: Harmonic excitations due to rotary machines; response of rigid foundations in 1DOF; evaluation of the effects of vibration; coupled response of rigid foundations in two degrees of freedom; types of hammers and hammer foundations; design criteria; mathematical models; impact forces and impact eccentricity.

4. Vibration Damage and Remedial Measures for Machine Foundations: Damage and disturbance; problem assessment and evaluation; remedial principles; examples from different industries; sources of error.

5. Geotechnical Earthquake Engineering Fundamentals: Sources of seismic hazard; introduc-tion to seismic waves; ground motion characterization and response spectra; evaluation of soil dynamic properties; site response analysis.

6. Design of Foundations for Seismic Loads: Dynamic bearing capacity of shallow foundations; dynamic response analysis of shallow foundations; conventional methods of analysis of piles un-der seismic loads; seismic analysis of deep caissons; seismic design of retaining walls; solved examples from industry.

7. Computer applications using DYNA-5: Types of foundations; types of soil models; types of loads; types of analysis and output; practical applications using DYNA-5.

LEARNING OUTCOMES

– Comprehend the basics of soil dynamics as related to soil-structure interaction modeling– Know the major field tests that are used for evaluating the dynamic soil properties– Design shallow and pile foundations for rotary machine and seismic loads– Know the major steps for determining the seismic stability of cantilever and gravity retaining walls– Apply the capacity spectrum method for evaluating the seismic performance of large caissons

SEMINAR BENEFITS

– Understand the behavior of soils under dynamic loading– Learn about soil-structure interaction and methods of incorporating it in global models– Learn procedures for equipment foundation design– Gain insight into the response of centrifugal, reciprocating, and hammerfoundations– Learn what are the basic dynamic soil properties and the required field tests for its evaluation– Learn about basic Geotechnical earthquake engineering principles and its relation to global

loads–Apply the knowledge of analysis and design procedure in hands-on exercises on computers in a

workshop setting

ASSESSMENT OF LEARNING OUTCOMES

Students’ achievement of the learning outcomes will be assessed through solved examples and problem-solving following each session.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?

This seminar will be of interest to project managers, structural engineers, geotechnical engineers, and architects who wish to have a better understanding of the current state-of-the-art with respect to the analysis and design of flexible, rigid, and pile foundations subjected to all types of dynamic loads. All key concepts and terminology will be explained and emphasis will be placed on the practical applica-tion of the information provided.
