Simulation of overburden pressure during laboratory investigations of axial pipe–soil interaction

Abstract:

The simulation of additional soil overburden pressure through the use of a surcharge system is a technique commonly adopted in laboratory testing of pipe–soil interaction. This paper examines the influence of surcharge boundary conditions and pressure level on the axial sliding behaviour of a trenched pipeline surrounded by sand backfill. A novel testing tank is employed in conjunction with a pressure bag system to simulate overburden pressure; both flexible and rigid surcharge boundary condi...
