Effects of Pipe Deflection and Arching on Stress Distribution and Lateral Earth Pressure Coefficient in Buried Flexible Pipes

In this study, full-scale laboratory tests were conducted on a 315 mm diameter HDPE pipe under shallow buried and localised surface loading conditions to investigate the effects of pipe deflection and arching on stress distribution and the lateral earth pressure coefficient. The tests were validated...
