Modelling and Analysis of Block Type Machine Foundation by Finite Element Method using STAAD Pro.

This video is also helpful for learning the application of 'SOIL STRUCTURAL INTERACTION' concept and Applying 'TIME HISTORY' to any structure using STAAD Pro. software.

Sorry for mistake made in video regarding values of Soil Stiffness Values assigned to model.
Correct Values are mentioned below.

kx = 37500 x 12 = 450000 kN/m
ky = 75000 x 12 = 900000 kN/m
kz = 37500 x 12 = 450000 kN/m
kϴ = 150000 x 9 = 1350000 kN.m/rad
kΨ = 56250 x 25 = 1406250 kN.m/rad
kɸ = 150000 x 16 = 2400000 kN.m/rad

No. of Nodes at base of Staad Model = 221

Therefore, Stiffness values to be assigned to staad model are:
kx = 450000/221 = 2036.199 kN/m
ky = 700000 /221 = 4072.398 kN/m
kz = 450000/221 = 2036.199 kN/m
kϴ = 1350000 x PI / 180 = 23561.94 kN.m/deg
kΨ = 1406250 x PI / 180 = 24543.69 kN.m/deg
kɸ = 2400000 x PI / 180 = 41887.9 kN.m/deg

Thank You for Watching.
