Should the gravity of concrete be included in the foundation load?

[Lirock]

Hi,everyone:

I got a question when I calculated the foundation load in a hydralic turbine project.When it comes to the load transported by stayring, should I take the gravity of concrete into account?
Thanks!

Man (or woman) this is a iron piling, foundation rattling, ear splitting turbine engineers forum. Go post this question on a civil or sturctural engineers forum.

Us iron pilers will go over there and see what they tell you. They will know the answer.
