Abstract:
A base pad for supporting heavy, vibrating machinery with minimal environmental pollution, the pad including a peripheral frame of rigid beams, a grid of reenforcing rods extending across the interior of the peripheral frame between the beams, and a cementitious filler within the peripheral frame. Flanged channel beams extend across the peripheral frame in spaced pairs and form a series of spaced anchor slots opening upwardly through the cementitious material, and also form liquid drains beneath the slots. The drains communicate through openings through the beams with aligned discharge spouts secured to the beams. A plurality of intercommunicating, peripheral, unwardly opening V-gutters are disposed in the cementitious filler adjacent the peripheral frame beams, and are connected to drain liquid into the liquid drains.
