Stresses on Buried Pipe
(OP)
I don't know if this is the appropriate forum to ask this question, but I will give it a try.
Can anyone point me to references that would help me evaluate the strength of a pvc pipe to be installed under a large coal pile?

You will need to get the physical properties of the pipe to be used. This should be available from the pipe manufacturer.

A coal pile usually has a large caterpillar tractor on top pushing the material around. The expected loading from the tractor will be much different than what you would expect from just a material pile.
