Hi to everybody
I am working on a case in which the pipe is buried but the soil is under the water. I have seen that the Caesar-II soil modeler requires the Soil Density but in the help nothing is indicated regarding the type of density...is it with or without the water effect? in other words if the value is 1500Kg/m3 if I consider the water effect the value to be introduced should be 500Kg/m3.
Checking the American method the density required is the effective density so including this effect.
Does anybody can help me on this parameter?
Thanx a lot
