Question

A 48” O.D., 3/4” steel wall pipeline is buried under the bottom of a harbor. It is proposed that the minimum cover for the pipe under the bottom is 2'. The saturated unit weight of the soil is 110 pcf.

Compute the net force on the pipe. Will it float to the surface without the shear resistance of the soil?
