HDD Pullforce 10 Inch

This document summarizes a program that calculates the estimated pulling force required to lift pipes of different materials out of the ground. The program takes into account factors like the pipe's diameter and weight, mud density, surface friction, angle of the pipe, and pipe length to determine the lifting force. It provides sample calculations for lifting forces for steel and HDPE pipes of varying dimensions and weights. The document notes that the calculations are based on standard models but actual underground conditions may vary and the results should only be used as a guideline.
