Horizontal End Suction Pump for Chemical Process, ASME B73.1-2001

Figure 5.10 Plotting the motor in the across the disc pack alignment analysis example.
In this example, the motor should be shimmed up 0.013 inch (0.330 mm) under front feet and shimmed up
0.016 inch (0.406 mm) under back feet.
This solution can also be done by use of a pre-programmed, calculator for faster results.
For the horizontal (side to side) results, the same procedure is used. Algebraically subtract the side to side
readings. Indicator sag can be ignored as it cancels out. Plot these readings and the results can be read off the
graph.
