Analysis of Selected Methods of Machine Seating using Multi-Bolted Foundation Connections
Author:
Abstract: Finite element modeling of multi-bolted foundation connections applied in the case of seating of heavy machines or devices is reported. Connections performed by means of 3 different types of chocks were investigated. Characteristics of stiffness for the assumed models of multi-bolted foundation connections at the assembling phase were outlined and discussed. Conclusions of great relevance to engineering design were presented.
