Effect of pipe installation and external load on buried steel pipe responses: Experimental and numerical investigations

During pipe installation, compacting soil at pipe sides causes an initial pipe deformation which is known as the “peaking” effect. However, in conventional pipe design codes, only pipe deformation caused by vertical overburden is considered while the “peaking” effect is ignored. In this study, a ful...
