Earth Pressure Reduction Studies on Covered Pipelines with Geofoam

India is currently investing heavily in pipelines. Given the high soil pressure in our country, it is important to ensure the soil pressure safety of underground pipelines. These facts have made the performance of buried and above-ground piping structures that are subject to fault and soil liquefaction an important subject of investigation. Pipelines are considered the most reliable, economical and efficient means of transporting water and other commercial liquids such as oil and gas. These piping systems are commonly used to transport water, sewage, oil, natural gas and other materials. They are often referred to as "lifelines" because they contain materials that are essential for life support and property maintenance. The ground pressure safety of underground pipelines has received great attention in recent years. Pipelines are important, large-scale lifeline systems that are exposed to a range of seismic hazards and soil conditions. Many buried pipelines in India run under high ground pressure and are therefore exposed to considerable buried pipelines. Pipelines running through strongly seismic zones should be designed so that they remain functional even after strong earthquake vibrations. Piping systems are commonly used to transport water, sewage, oil, natural gas, etc. over a large area and are exposed to a variety of seismic hazards and soil conditions. As a rule, pipelines are laid underground, primarily for aesthetic, safety-related, economic and ecological reasons.
