3.3.5. Pressure of the machine on ground and load-bearing capacity of ground Before using the machine, the operator must make sure the floor is suitable for withstanding the specific loads and pressures on the ground with a certain safety margin. The following chart provides the parameters in play and two examples of calculation of the average pressure on the ground below the machine and max pressure underneath the wheels or outriggers (p1 and p2).
Page 33: High-Voltage Power Lines
The table below shows the load-bearing capacity of the ground split up by ground type. Refer to the data contained in the specific tables of each model (chapter 2, TECHNICAL FEATURES OF STANDARD MACHINES) to obtain the figure relating to the max pressure on the ground caused by the single wheel. Using the machine is forbidden if the max ground pressure per wheel is higher than the bearing capacity of the specific type of ground on which the machine is to be used.
