Open translation for this passage
τοῦ βωμοῦ δὲ τοῦ ἐν Ὀλυμπίᾳ κρηπῖδος μὲν τῆς πρώτης, προθύσεως καλουμένης, πόδες πέντε καὶ εἴκοσι καὶ ἑκατόν ἐστι περίοδος, τοῦ δὲ ἐπὶ τῇ προθύσει περίμετρος ἐπακτοῦ πόδες δύο καὶ τριάκοντα·
The sentence has two coordinated measurement clauses: the first gives the περίοδος of the first κρηπίς/πρόθυσις, while the second gives the περίμετρος; the second clause contains ellipsis of εἰμί and likely carries ἐπακτοῦ with the elided genitive referent.

τὸ δὲ ὕψος τοῦ βωμοῦ τὸ σύμπαν ἐς δύο καὶ εἴκοσιν ἀνήκει πόδας.
The phrase τὸ σύμπαν is treated as a totalizing modifier of the height statement; ἐς δύο καὶ εἴκοσιν πόδας expresses extent/measurement, with πόδας as the accusative of measure.

αὐτὰ μὲν δὴ τὰ ἱερεῖα ἐν μέρει τῷ κάτω, τῇ προθύσει, καθέστηκεν αὐτοῖς θύειν· τοὺς μηροὺς δὲ ἀναφέροντες ἐς τοῦ βωμοῦ τὸ ὑψηλέστατον καθαγίζουσιν ἐνταῦθα.
The first clause is elliptical/difficult: αὐτὰ τὰ ἱερεῖα is the subject, with καθέστηκεν functioning as ‘are set/appointed’ and αὐτοῖς θύειν as an infinitival purpose/complement. In the second clause, τοὺς μηρούς is the object of ἀναφέροντες and καθαγίζουσιν; τὸ ὑψηλέστατον is substantivized accusative, the destination/objective elevation of the altar.
