Day 1 - April 26, 2018: Short Course and Workshop On Design of Machine Foundations

The document outlines the program for a two-day short course on machine foundation design held on April 26-27, 2018. Day 1 covers topics such as dynamic soil properties, shallow foundations, pile foundations, and modelling. Day 2 focuses on dynamic response of foundations under various loads, impact loads, workshop on pump foundations, and introduction and workshop for the DYNA6.1 foundation analysis software. The course aims to provide knowledge on dynamic loads, soil-structure interaction, and computer modeling of machine foundations.
