Finite Element Analysis of Buried Pipe in Soil Slope
Buried pipelines are used from earlier stage of civilization for transporting drinking water, waste water, oil, natural gas, chemicals, etc. Due to large distribution system, buried pipes are needed to be installed in different geographical area. In this study, numerical analysis of buried pipes in soil slope was carried out in PLAXIS 3D. In addition, a strip footing was also installed to investigate the optimum vertical position of buried pipe which will have minimum effect on ultimate bearing capacity of footing. To find out the optimum vertical position of buried pipe, different parameters were considered such as slope angle, setback distance, and depth of pipe below lower surface of footing. From the result, it is observed that the footing’s bearing capacity is maximum at slope angle 20° and at setback distance to footing’s width 2. When the pipe is shifted away from the stress bulb of footing in a downward direction, the bearing capacity gets increased. Meanwhile, the safe vertical depth of buried pipe is adopted as 3.5 times the width of footing as the effect of buried pipes on bearing capacity of footing becomes minimum at this position.
