Machine foundation does a vibration analysis on the foundation only and does not design piers. The Drilled/Driven Pier option that is available within the Plant Foundation mode is only implemented for the US code. The Drilled Pier within Foundation Toolkit mode designs for axial loads only and that does not support Indian standards either. So I don’t think you can use any of these for designing piers as per Indian standards. I am not aware of any immediate plans to incorporate Indian codes for these modules however if there is a significant demand down the line, things can change.
