Thermal Civil Design Engineer Dynamic Foundation

Role & responsibilities

To perform and review civil and structural designs of dynamic foundations and related structures in thermal power plant projects, ensuring technical accuracy, compliance with codes, and coordination with multidisciplinary teams.

• Perform civil and structural design and analysis of

  dynamic foundations

  such as

  turbine-generator foundations, compressor foundations, boiler feed pump foundations, blowers, crushers, and rotating equipment foundations

  .
• Develop and validate

  3D analysis models

  using tools like

  STAAD.Pro

  , considering vibration, resonance, and dynamic load impacts.
• Conduct

  machine foundation dynamic analysis

  (rotating and reciprocating type) including natural frequency checks, amplitude predictions, and isolation requirements.
• Prepare design basis reports, foundation drawings, and calculation sheets in accordance with project and industry standards.
• Coordinate with mechanical, electrical, and layout teams for load data, interface requirements, and equipment details.
• Review and ensure compliance with relevant codes such as

  IS 2974, ACI 351, DIN 4024

  , and project-specific specifications.

Preferred candidate profile

• Strong knowledge of

  dynamic foundation design principles

  and vibration analysis.
• Hands-on experience in

  STAAD.Pro, other finite element tools

  for structural dynamics.
• Proficiency in

  AutoCAD

  or

  Revit

  for drawing and detailing.
• Good understanding of

  soilstructure interaction

  , machine load data interpretation, and damping systems.
• Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and coordination skills.
• Familiarity with

  IS, ACI, and DIN

  design codes relevant to machine foundations.
