This is the actual machine mounting framework just before we poured the concrete. The RSJ thet is painted red is the top and only the top surface of this will be seen. The two RSJs on their sides on top are only there to hold the framework approx 300mm off the base of the hole. They are bolted in position on the machined plates that will be the final mounting points for the "A" frames.
The steel work that is being covered by concrete is purely just to hold the top in position.
Done.You can see from this pic the bolts in the ends of the supporting beams that were used to level the whole framework while the concrete sets and also the yellow stripe, this is a wooded batten sitting atop the anti vibration foam which will be removed and replaced with silicone sealer.
The "A" frames.The barrel, made from 2" thick steel!!
