Hi everyone
First I have to mention that I am not a native english speaker
Am a mechanical engineer actually working on a. piping system that cntain buried piping.That why we need some soil caracteristics such as density, internal friction angle and soil cohesion. As a reference document document we received the geotechnical repory which contains soil density for 2 sites only ( our piping systems are in three different sites) but doens't contains cohesion neither internal friction angle. For flexibility analysis we took those values from CODETI but to dimension underground support structures we cannot use those values. My question is the following is there a paragraph our a text in the EUROCODE that gives typical values of these carateristics for each soil type or even formula to calculate them. Or we can only determine them by. S field or laboratory test. ?
Thank you in advance
