Anchor Block Sizing

This document summarizes the design parameters for a pipeline bend located at chainage 10+100 including the pipe material properties, dimensions, coating, insulation, bend angle, operating conditions, and resulting radial bend force of 134058 lbs. It determines that an anchor block is required since the radial bend force is greater than the soil resistance of 33327 lbs. The anchor block dimensions and properties are provided, and it is determined that the anchor block soil resistance of 146763.34 lbs is adequate to resist the radial bend force.
