no bottom for sanitary sewer
(OP)
I am in the middle of a sanitary sewer upgrade. The line we are replacing runs along a lake so needless to say the soil isn't the greatest. There are a couple of spots in particular that don't have good soil for 5 to 10 feet below the invert of the pipe. Does anyone have any suggestions for supporting an 18" RCP sanitary sewer other than driving piling?

Some of this depends on the length of run that is over poor soils. If it is a long run, you might have to drive piles and combine it with other supports.
