Stiff pads should also be installed beneath the wedges, which are welded together atvarious spots about 400-500mm (15.75-19.70 inches) apart etc., to enable the foundationto carry evenly the weight of the whole motor.(e) The base should be sturdy and rigid to keep itflat and level.(f) Make sure the mortar and concrete arecompletely dry, and the precision of the level isacceptable, and then set the motor on themounting foundation.(g) Accurately install shaft couplings, belt sheavesetc., then weld the wedges solid to preventuntoward change in position.3.2.3 The foundation of vertical induction motors: (Also the foundation of pump)(a) Foundation of motor/pump must be rigid and secure to provide adequate support. Theremust be no vibration, twisting, misalignment etc. due to inadequate foundations.(b) A massive concrete foundation is preferred in order to minimize vibration. Rigidity andstability are enhanced by prop plate and foundation bolt. As shown in Fig. 4.5
