Crackdown on Piping Issues: A Geometric Survey of Pump Support Structure
The piping of this very large pump was about 10 feet in diameter, and structural cracks were forming. We measured the flatness of each individual bearing foot, and then measured that flatness against a best-fit plane of all four feet to check for soft foot. We also measured…
