Figure 3-6 Foundation bolting
The classification society requires the use of side stoppers to prevent any lateral
movement of the engine in case of collision. Different designs are possible for the
side stoppers. WinGD proposes a welded type side stopper design (see Figure
3-7).
Figure 3-7 Welded type
The welding seam must be continuous over the entire length of the wedge (see
Figure 3-8, 3-13). Specifications for the minimum numbers of side-stoppers
and their positions are defined in the engine seating and foundation drawing.
The minimum required contact surface of each wedge to the engine bedplate are
also provided in the drawing.
The latest version of the Marine Installation Drawing Set relevant for the en-
gine seating and foundation (DG 9710) is provided on the WinGD webpage
