SOIL SPRING
Parameters
s = 18.00 kN/m3 unit weight of fill
H = 3.50 m depth to pipe centerline
D = 3.00 m pipe outside diameter
= 32 internal angle of friction of soil
FS = 3.0 factore of safety
Lateral Soil Spring
The maximum lateral soil force per unit length of pipe that can be transmitted to the pipe is

where: Pu = 7.124 kPa


Nch = horizontal bearing capacity factor for clay (0 for c = 0)
