BURIED PIPE DESIGN

BURIED PIPE DESIGN

BURIED PIPE DESIGN

(OP)
I am doing some analysis for a large mat foundation and have a 12" Terra Cotta sanitary sewer pipe that is buried approximately 32" below the mat. Can anyone provide information about buried pipe design particularly for Terra Cotta and design values. I am going to bridge over the pipe but have created an interest concerning the analytical approach to determination of the actual loading on the pipe and what would be the allowable loading. Currently, the pressure beneath the mat footing has been held to approximately 1700 psf.
