CALCULATOR : High Temperature Pipeline Soil Uplift Resistance (Multi Layer Pipe) [FREE]   ±

Calculate total pipeline and soil uplift resistance from soil cover height for multi layer flowlines.

The soil weight can be calculated for either sand, gravel, Schaminee non cohesive soil model, bi-modal non cohesive soil model, or bi modal cohesive soil model.
