    45 - Design of Thrust Block Horizontal

    Uploaded by

    Shivkumar Pujari
    The document provides design details for a thrust block for a buried pipe with an 0.842m diameter and 60T/sqm water pressure at a 45 degree bend. It calculates the force on the block of 25.57T and specifies concrete dimensions of 1.442m depth and 3.8m length to withstand this force plus 17.51T of passive earth pressure. It confirms a safety factor of 1.06 against sliding and specifies a required concrete volume of 5.79cum.
