    The document summarizes the design of a foundation for a 350kW genset with a 6 cylinder engine weighing 2990kg. The foundation dimensions are calculated to be 1.16m wide, 3.15m long, with a 300mm allowance around the unit based on a soil bearing capacity of 12,225kg/m2 and a factor of safety of 5.
