Description
Most oil and gas projects, petrochemical, refinery a, power generation project and most other industry have a vibrating machine like pumps, compressors, generators packages. The target of this course you will learn the how to design the concrete foundation and steel deck under the vibrating machines. The dynamic analysis will be discussed. How to define the geotechnical investigation report scope and what is the required soil test specific in case of vibrating machine and what is soil parameters it is required to design. The main question what is the data required from the manufacturer of the machine or from the mechanical engineer to start your design? There is a session clarify and present the guideline which is used to choose the foundation dimensions as per technical practice to have a safe design.
The types of the machines and the differences between the drive and the driven and what its practical types of the machines in the market. how to design each type like centrifugal or reciprocating machines by the preliminary method. The design for a reciprocating power turbine compressor with real example will be cover and also for a reciprocating type. The way of design the steel deck under the vibrating machine will be discuss by a real example of gas turbine generator over the steel deck.
Who this course is for:

Mohamed A. El-Reedy's background is in structural engineering. His main area of research is the reliability of concrete and steel structures. He has provided consulting to different engineering companies and oil and gas industries in Egypt and to international companies such as the International Egyptian Oil Company (IEOC) and British Petroleum (BP). Moreover, he provides different concrete and steel structure design packages for residential buildings, warehouses, and telecommunication towers and electrical projects with WorleyParsons Egypt. He has participated in Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) and Natural Gas Liquid (NGL) projects with international engineering firms.Currently, Dr. El-Reedy is responsible for reliability, inspection, and maintenance strategy for onshore concrete structures and offshore steel structure platforms. He has performed these tasks for hundreds of structures in the Gulf of Suez in the Red Sea.
Dr. El-Reedy has consulted with and trained executives at many organizations, including the Arabian American Oil Company (ARAMCO), bp, Apachi, Abu Dhabi Marine Operating Company (ADMA), the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company, and King Saudi's Interior ministry, Qatar Telecom, the Egyptian General Petroleum Corporation, Saudi Arabia Basic Industries Corporation, the Kuwait Petroleum Corporation, and Qatar Petrochemical Company (QAPCO). He has taught technical courses about repair and maintenance for reinforced concrete structures and the advanced materials in concrete industry worldwide, especially in the Middle East.
Dr. El-Reedy has written numerous publications and has presented many papers at local and international conferences sponsored by the American Society of Civil Engineers, the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, the American Concrete Institute, the American Society for Testing and Materials, and the American Petroleum Institute. He has published many research papers in international technical journals and has authored many books published worldwide about offshore structures, advanced materials in concrete construction and corrosion of reinforced concrete structure, Construction management and design of industrial concrete and steel structures and Project management for industrial projects. He received his bachelor's degree from Cairo University in 1990, his master's degree in 1995, and his Ph.D from Cairo University in 2000.
