Executive Summary | The methods to calculate the loads on horizontal pipes in filling sand are studied in this paper. One of which is finite element method assuming the filling sand to be an elastic continuum. Two calculation methods are presented, which make use of the Marston-Spangler's theory which provides a rational method for estimating loads on underground conduits. Reasonable results could be obtained by these two methods comparing with the results by finite element method. |
