Pipe in ground is moving wet raw sludge down a slope at a 30 degree angle and an elevation difference
of 300 ft. Where P1 = 17 psi and P2 = 23 psi, D1 = 2 ft, D2 = 0.9 FT, Flow Rate through pipe Q= 5.8 cfs and
specific gravity Weight of water and pipe = 80 lbf and maximum vertical force that can be applied to
surrounding soil = 800 lbf. Is vertical force greater than 800 lbf to keep system in balance?
