vertical vessel foundations.

APPLICATION
This practice applies to types of equipment or structures which require an octagonal
foundation, including stacks or tall cantilever supports.
GENERAL
Before designing any verticaL vessel foundations, the Lead Structural Engineer will
meet with the Lead Vessel Engineer to agree on consistent wind and seismic Loadings,
corrosion allowances for anchor bolts, and any special requirements dictated by the
client.
At the time of the foundation drawing squad check by the Lead Structural Engineer,
the vessel drawing should be compared to the design calculations to ensure that no
major platform changes, anchor bolt changes, or vessel size changes have occurred.
Computer programs are available for the design of vertical vessel foundations, and
should be used whenever possible to expedite foundation design.
DESIGN CONDITIONS
VerticaL Loads

Erection Weight: Fabricated weight of vessel, generalLy taken from vessel drawing,
plus internals, platforms, manways, and piping that are actually erected with the
vessel.
Empty Weight:
Fabricated weight of vessel plus weight of internals, piping,
insulation, fireproofing, and platforms; generally taken from vessel drawing.
Operating Weight:
Empty weight plus weight of
generally taken from vessel drawing.

operating

liquid or catalyst;

Test Weight:
Empty weight plus weight of water required for hydrostatic test;
generally taken from vessel drawing.
It should be determined whether a hydrostatic test will actually be done in the
field.
It is generally desirable to design for test weight since unforeseen
circumstances may occur.
The above loads should be considered as dead loads when applying load factors used
in ultimate strength design.

Wind Loads
Wind loads should be calculated in accordance with the job specifications and
Structural Engineering Practice 000.215.1215: Wind Load Calculation.
Wind loads are normally calculated by the Mechanical group; however, verification by
the Structural group may be required.
Wind loads calculated by hand should be
compared to the computer printout. If the 2 results compare favorably, the higher
value should be used for foundation design.

VERTICAL VESSEL FOUIAT IONS

When caLcuLating or checking wind Loads, due consideration shouLd be given to factors
which may significantLy affect total wind Loads such as the application of dynamic
gust factors or the presence of spoilers on the vesseL.
Seisaic Loads

In earthquake zones, seismic forces determined in accordance with job specifications,

usualLy conforming with the UBC (Uniform Building Code), wiLL replace wind forces
when greater. Refer to Structural Engineering Practice 000.215.1216: Earthquake
Engineering, for seismic design considerations and procedures.
Seismic Loads caLculated by the MechanicaL group may require verification by the
Structural group with the higher value used for foundation design.
ThersaL Loads
Thrusts due to thermal expansion of piping will be included in the operating Load
cothinations, when deemed advisable.
Dead Load factors will be applied to the
resuLtants of piping thermal Loadings. Consult the Pipe Stress Engineer for any
thermal Loads that are required.
Load Cainaticns
a

Empty weight plus wind (or seismic).

Operating weight (including piping and thermal expansion forces) plus wind (or
seismic).

Test weight plus 35 mph wind load.

A contination of erection weight pLus wind will be used when applicable.

At times, it is necessary to consider the Loads imposed on the foundation by erection
equipment such as gin poles. The erection and equipment loads will be considered as
dead loads when applying Load factors.
Design Stresses

Unit concrete and reinforcing steel stresses may be increased by 1/3 in accordance
with ACI (American Concrete Institute) 318 and job specifications when wind or
seismic toad continations are considered. For test conditions, unit stresses may be
increased by 20 percent.
The alLowable soil bearing pressure will not be increased for any contination, unless
dictated by job specifications.
ANCHOR BOLTS

Design procedures for sizing anchor bolts, factored anchor bolt Loads, and anchor
bolt pretensioning are covered in Structural Engineering Practice 000.215.1207:
Anchor Bolt Design Criteria.
Sizes will be checked by the Structural Engineer in accordance with folLowing
formula:

PEDESTAL DESIGN
Sizing

Concrete pedestals supporting vertical vessels wiLl be sized with pedestal faces in
even inch increments according to the following criteria:

Face-to-face pedestal size wiLl be no Less than the Larger of:

Bolt circle
Bolt circle

8 inches
8 bolt diameters
sleeve diameter + 6 inches

Pedestals 4- 0 and larger will be octagonal in shape; smaller than 4- 0,

use a square shape.

It is normaLLy desirable to make the pedestal deep enough to contain the anchor bolts
and keep them out of the mat.
Reinforcing
The pedestal will be tied to the footing with sufficient dowels around the pedestal
perimeter to prevent separation of the pedestal and footing.
DoweLs

Dowels are customarily sized by computing the maximus tension existing at the
pedestal perimeter due to overturning moments in accordance with the following

(i

The requirement for additional vertical reinforcing for anchor bolt development wilt
be checked in accordance with Structural Engineering Practice 000.215.1207.
FOOTING DESIGN
The folLowing procedures cover footing design for soiL supported foundations. For
foundations sLported on driLled shafts or driven piles, refer to Structural
Engineering Practice 000.215.1231:
Drilled Pile Foundations, and Structural
Engineering Practice 000.215.1232: Driven Pile Foundations.
Sizing
Footings for vertical vessels will normalLy be octagonal in shape and sized with
footing faces in even inch increments to simplify form work. Offsets and coirbined
footings will be avoided where possible. Footings smatter than 7- 0 in diameter
wilt be square.
The footing thickness wiLt be 12 inches minirm.xn arid thickened in 3-inch increments.
The footing thickness required for adequate eithecknent of pedestal reinforcement
should be checked in accordance with AC! 318. The footing thickness should also be
checked using the curves in Attachment 03.

For the first trial, the diameter of an octagonal footing may be approximated by the
following formula:

StabiLity Ratio
The stability ratio (ratio of dead toad resisting moment to overturning moment) will
be according to job specifications, with a minimun of 1.5 to 1.
Reinforcing
Consider the critical sections for moment and shear taken with respect to the face
of a square of area equivalent to that of the pedestal.
Moment should be checked at the face of the equivalent square.

Shear, as a measure of diagonal tension, should be checked at the face of the

equivalent square and if excessive, should be checked as outlined in ACI 318.
The moment and shear wilt be figured for a unit strip as a siaLe cantilever from the
equivalent square and the resulting reinforcing steel placed continuously across the
entire footing in a grid pattern.
If tensile stress in the upper face of footing exceeds the allowable concrete stress,
top steel should be used, provided it is not feasible to increase the footing
thickness.
The minimun bottom footing reinforcing will be #5 bars at 12 inches OC (On Center)
each way.
