I've found an abstract of what seems like a useful report, but I can't locate a copy on the web. The report is "Interaction of Anchors with Soil and Anchor Design" by Robert J. Taylor, 1982. It's a US Navy document so I figure it must be free and available, I just can't find it thru Google...
I'm looking for some guidance so I can estimate the solar heat gain to a water-filled pipeline. This problem does not concern a solar water heater, but will probably be a similar solution. I'd also like to include convection from a 5 mph wind. My assumption is that this problem would be...

jdonville,
I looked at the NAVFAC DM 7.02. Table 1 on page 7.2-63 has some info I can use. In addition to friction, dependent on bottom sediment composition, cohesion might increase the resisting force of the concrete anchor. Thanks for your help.
I'm calculating the mooring capacity of concrete anchor blocks lain on the sea bottom. I've seen a range of coefficients used, from 0.6 to 0.75. Is there a good reference out there from which I can find some lateral static friction values for different types of sea bottoms?
Can someone direct me to a section in UBC97 that allows roof live load to be ignored when floor live load is considered in total load? Hence, roof live load does not have to be considered to act simultaneously with floor live load in residential light contruction. ???
