61m PIPE LINE CROSSING CHECKING FOR SUITABILITY FOR 25T AXLE LOADING

Rail Level = 3.603 m

Formation Levl = 2.883 m

Depth of Fill above top of pipe = 0.948 m

Ballast Cushion = 0.3 m

Depth of cushion available below sleeper bottom = 1.248 m > 0.90 m as per RDSO guide lines dted 25-02-2010

Bed levl = 1.25 m

Dia. Of pipe inside d = 0.61 m

Dia. Of pipe out side D = 0.76 m

thickness of concrete bedding below pipe bottom = 0.3 m > d/4 0.1525 as per is 783-1985.

thickness of concrete above pipe bottom = 0.30 > D/4 0.190 as per is 783-1985.

Class of Pipe = NP4 Class

Width of Concrete bedding = 2.400 m > 2D+0.20+D/2 2.22 as per is 783-1985.

Assuming Clear Gap between two pipes as 0.5
Grade of Concrete = M 20 > M15 as per is 783-1985.

It is observed that pipe line crossing with pipe of class NP-4 satisfying the guide line issued by RDSO dated 25-02-2010
for suitability of NP-4 Class Pipe for 25 Ton axle load 2008 referring the conditions mentioned in is 783-1985 for bedding conditions
,thickness of bedding,width of bedding, height of bedding above bottom of pipe.Hence the pipe line crossing is safe for running 25 Ton Axle Loading.
Since the pipe line is already exists at the proposed location the same will be utilised for proposed doubling work.
