Abstract:Failure of pipelines below road pavement results to the disruption of both the traffic movement and the consumers of the pipelines. Intermediate safeguard layer can be used to protect the pipeline from heavy traffic loads. The present study proposed analytical solutions to obtain the dynamic response of buried pipe below road pavement with and without considering safeguard based on the concept of triple and double beam system respectively. Pavement layer, safeguard and the pipeline are considered as Euler Bern… Show more
