Assembly
6.1
Assembly drawings
If installation conditions vary, specific installation drawings can be
prepared by GEDA.
Assembly drawings supplied and released must be kept until disassembly
of the platform.
6.2
Foundation / Substructure
The foundation and load-distribution substratum(substrata) must safely
transfer any existing loads into the subsoil. Therefore, before beginning
installation task, determine the following points.
•
Verification of the payload of the foundation / load-distributing
substratum (substrata).
•
Verification of the load-bearing capacity of the subsoil
Since the load-bearing capacity of the subsoil is often very difficult to
estimate, a specialist subsoil investigator should be called on if there is
even the slightest doubt, in particular for high/complicated superstructures.
The following points must be taken into account when assessing the
subsoil:
•
Maximum permissible soil pressure
•
Predicted settlement
•
Predicted groundwater levels
•
Predicted thawing and frost processes
•
Construction activities expected in direct proximity to the installation site
Wooden planks or steel plates can be used as load-distributing base
supports. The foundation must be horizontal to erect the mast.
The total weight (refer to table) of the transport platform and mast sections
is transferred through the foot section support under the mast in the
foundation.
The ground pressure of the different platform models is the same,
since the load bearing capacity of the platforms differ.
