| Abstract: | This paper presents the experimental validation of analytical solution based on cone model for machine foundation vibration
analysis on layered soil. Impedance functions for a rigid massless circular foundation resting on a two layered soil system
subjected to vertical harmonic excitation are found using cone model. Linear hysteretic material damping is introduced using
correspondence principle. The frequency-amplitude response of a massive foundation is then computed using impedance functions.
To verify the solution field experiments are conducted in two different layered soil systems such as gravel layer over in situ
soil and gravel layer over concrete slab (rigid base). A total 72 numbers of vertical vibration tests on square model footing
were conducted using Lazan type mechanical oscillator, varying the influencing parameters such as depth of top layer, static
weight of foundation and dynamic force level. The frequency-amplitude response in general and in particular the resonant frequencies
and resonant amplitudes predicted by cone model is compared with the results of experimental investigation, which shows a
close agreement. Thus the cone model is reliable in its application to machine foundation vibration on layered soil. |
