Abstract: The present investigation is aimed at comparative study of machine foundation and position of vibration isolator. Heavy machinery with reciprocating, impacting, or rotating masses requires a support system that can resist dynamic forces and the resulting vibrations. When excessive, such vibrations may be detrimental to the machinery, its support system, and any operating personnel subjected to them. For satisfactory performance of machine foundation system, the requirement such as permissible amplitude, allowable soil pressure, permissible stresses of concrete & steel given by IS 2974 should be fulfilled. For this one has to obtain the natural frequency of the system and amplitude of foundation during machine operation. The most important parameters for design of a machine foundation are: 1) natural frequency of machine-foundation-soil system; and 2) amplitude of motion of machine at its operating frequency.
