Dynamic Evaluation of ID Fan Foundation System
Publication: Structures Congress 2018: Bridges, Transportation Structures, and Nonbuilding Structures
ABSTRACT
Per the request from a client, S&L performed a comprehensive dynamic evaluation to determine the dynamic characteristics of existing fan foundations for evaluating their suitability to support new variable speed fans. The dynamic evaluation includes two parts: field dynamic test and finite element analysis. The field vibration test was conducted to determine the fundamental frequencies and dynamic stiffness of existing fan foundations. Based on the field test result, the finite element analysis was performed to evaluate the response of new fan foundation systems.
