• In medium capacity
hammer, a vibration
isolation layer is placed
between the anvil and the
foundation block. Usually
the isolation layer is an
elastic pad consisting of
rubber, felt, cork or
timber adequately
protected against water
and oil (Fig. a)

NOTATIONS
m2 = Mass of foundation and frame if the latter is mounted on
the foundation

Wt = Weight of tup
Wa = Weight of anvil
Wf = Weight of frame
Wb = Weight of foundation block
h = Height of fall of tup
N blows/min = Frequency of impact
Ac = Net area of cylinder
r = Equivalent radius of the base of the foundation
G = Dynamic shear modulus of soil
Kp = Spring coefficient of pile foundation
Ep = Elastic modulus of pile material
Ap = cross sectional area of pile
L = Length of pile
Va= Velocity of anvil after impact
VTi= Initial velocity of tup
VTa= Velocity of tup after impact

m1 = Wa/g
m2 = Wb/g
• Wt will have to be added
to either Wa or to Wb
depending upon whether
the frame is attached to
anvil or to foundation
block
• The mass m1 is subjectd
to a velocity of vibration
of V1 and is calculated
based on the momentum
equation

Natural Frequencies
• The equations of motion in free vibration(without
damping) are
..
m1Z1 + + K1 (Z1– Z2) = 0 (1)
..
m2Z2 + K2 Z2 + K1 (Z2 – Z1) = 0 (2)
• The two circular natural frequencies ωn1 and ωn2 shall be
determined as roots of the following quadratic equation

DESIGN CRITERIA
a) The design of the entire foundation system shall
be such that the centres of gravity of the anvil
and of the foundation block, as well as the
resultants of the forces in the elastic pad and the
foundation support, act as far as practicable so as
to coincide with the line of fall of the hammer
tup. While determining the centre of gravity of
the foundation block the weight of the frame and
of the tup shall also be considered.
b) The foundation shall be so designed that the
induced vibrations in the structures nearby are
within the safe limits fixed for them.

PERMISSIBLE STRESSES
• The total force acting on the pad and on the
foundation support shall be such that the
deformation of the elastic material in them
are within the allowable limits.
• The load intensity on the soil below the
foundation shall not be more than 80 percent
of the allowable bearing pressure of the soil or
material as the case may be.
PERMISSIBLE AMPLITUDES
• The permissible amplitudes which depend
upon the mass of the tup shall be as follows:

DIMENSIONAL CRITERIA
• Area — The area of the foundation block at
the base shall be such that the safe loading
intensity of soil is never exceeded during the
operation of the hammer.
• Depth — The depth of the foundation block
shall be so designed that the block is safe both
in punching shear and bending. However, the
following minimum thickness of foundation
block below the anvil shall be provided :
