A design proposal for timber pile supported sewers
01 / From the publisher
Abstract
The design difficulties for rigid sewer pipe and timber pile supports in low-strength soils are reviewed. A proposal is developed to serve as a rational basis of design for assessing vertical and horizontal loads, pile and pile cap selection, flexural design and strength of the pipe to resist vertical loading, pile fixity, and pile column design. Examples of the calculation procedure are given and conclusions by others based on field testing of flexurally reinforced pipe are presented.
