A one-of-a-kind resource, Buried Pipe Design, Second Edition, identifies and explains every factor you must know to work competently and confidently with the subsurface infrastructure of distribution systems, including sewer lines, drain lines, water mains, gas lines, telephone and electrical conduits, culverts, oil lines, coal slurry lines, subway tunnels and heat distribution lines.
Within the pages of this acclaimed professional tool you'll find space-age remedies for the aging, deteriorating piping beneath America's cities -- and learn how to design long-lived systems capable of delivering vital services and meeting new demands. 544 pp.
This comprehensive, state-of-the-art resource shows you how to:
Determine loads on buried pipes
Understand pipe hydraulics
Choose an installation design for buried gravity flow pipes
Design for both rigid pipe and flexible pipe
Select appropriate pipe for your application based on material
properties
Work within safety guidelines
Handle soil issues, including pipe embedment and backfill
Employ the powerful tool of finite element analysis (FEA)
Adhere to current standards of the AWWA, ASTM, and other relevant
standards organization
Save time with actual design examples
Much, much more!
This thorough update of A. P. Moser's classic guide is now twice the size of the previous edition -- reflecting the vast progress and changes in the field in mere decade! You'll find enormous amounts of all-new material, including:
External Loads chapter: minimum soil cover, with a discussion of
similitude; soil subsidence; load due to temperature rise; seismic loads;
and flotation
Design of Gravity Flow Pipes chapter: compaction techniques; E'
analysis; parallel pipes and trenches; and analytical methods for predicting
performance of buried flexible pipes Design of Pressure Pipes chapter:
corrected theory for cyclic life of PVC pipe…strains induced by combined
loading in buried pressurized flexible pipe Rigid Pipe Products chapter: the
direct method…design strengths for concrete pipe…and SPIDA (Soil-Pipe
Interaction Design and Analysis)
Steel and Ductile Iron Flexible Pipe Products chapter: three-dimensional
FEA modeling of a corrugated steel pipe arch…tests on spiral ribbed steel
pipe, low-stiffness ribbed steel pipe, and ductile iron pipe
Plastic Flexible Pipe Products chapter: long-term stress relaxation and
strain testing of PVC pipes…frozen-in stresses…cyclic pressures and
elevated temperatures…the AWWA study on the use of PVC…long-term
ductility of PE…the ESCR and NCTL tests for PE…and full-scale testing of
HDPE profile-wall pipes
Entirely new chapter! You get new information on pipe handling and
trenching as well as safety issues. Here are valuable directions for working
with fast-growing trenchless methods for installing and rehabilitating
pipelines
Plus:
More design examples
The latest ASTM, AWWA, ASHTTO, and TRB standards
New data on cutting-edge materials including profile-wall polyethylene
