DG Foundation

This document provides specifications for designing the foundation of a dynamic generator (DG), including: 1) Material properties and load parameters such as concrete strength, steel yield strength, unit weights, and total transmitted and excitation loads. 2) Foundation design dimensions of 7.08m x 3.70m x 1.10m and calculated properties like mass, center of gravity, and moments of inertia. 3) Calculations to check the adequacy of foundation mass, soil stresses, frequency and amplitude, overturning, sliding, and reinforcement requirements. 4) A plan view of the designed foundation is provided.
