The objective of the calculation to ensure the design of new area parking lot to meet its safety of laying 5-foot directly above the existing 12-inch and 20-inch, API 5L X42 Pipe with a yield strength of 80,000 psi, not to stress over 80,000 psi before it will fail.

Does anyone has the correct formula to calculate the allowable bearing load on the A=63,000 sqft with 6" Concrete Gravel?

I would need to calculate the pipe load at different location (Delta X) and depth (Delta Y). I am expecting the pipe failure between 5 and 6 feet depth. Thank you much if you have came across my post and try to assist me with your valuable time.
