Hence safe

CHECK FOR SLIDING AND OVERTURNING

Concrete weight of sleeper = ((2.5x1.5x0.3)+(2.5x0.9x0.6)) x 25

220mm Soil weight on fdn top = ((2.5x1.5)-(2.5x0.9)) x 0.22 x 18

STAAD REACTIONS OF PIPE SLEEPER PS19

Overturning moment due to summation of horizontal reactions from STAAD
Horizontal reactions, Fh = 36,45 kN (Considered conservatively)
Distance from the center of the

horizontal force to the foundation, h
Overtuning moment, MO = Fh * h = 21,87 kNm

Factor of safety against overturning = 2,33 > 1,5

Hence Safe against overturning

Coeff. of friction(µ) = 0,18 (Considering 10 deg friction angle)

Lateral resisting load = 0.18 x (61.875+5.94)
= 12,21 kN
Cohesion, c = 25,40 kN
Cohesion Resistance = 25.4 x (2.5x1.5)
= 95,25 kN
Total Lateral Resisting Load = 12.21 + 95.25

Factor of safety against overturning = 2,95 > 1,1
Hence Safe against Sliding

Hence the Critical pipe sleeper PS-PB-5 is safe against sliding & overturning.
Also, base pressure & Shear stress & reinforcement provided are within the limit.
