SBC CC 8800 PDF

This document provides calculations to check the safe bearing capacity and settlement of soil for transferring a lifting crane crawler through a mobile access transport system. It analyzes the bearing pressure distribution and determines the ultimate bearing capacity is greater than the actual pressure at 2.5 meters below ground level. It also calculates the total settlement of the steel transport system foundation would be 26mm, less than the allowable 75mm. Therefore, the recommended safe bearing pressure for the transport system at natural ground level is 24 tons per square meter.

= 24 T/Sq.m
NOTE 1:- For the sake of load transfer on levelled ground surface the road specification of SUB-BASE and BASE
COURSE shall be extended in the laydown area and the tailing area.
NOTE 2:- This will ensure a homogenous ground strata for smooth supporting of the equipments during
unloading and a better marching of the crane during tailing
