What is Thrust Block Design Calculations about?

This document summarizes the design of a thrust block to counteract horizontal thrust from a 900mm diameter water pipe under 11kg/cm2 pressure. It calculates: 1) The horizontal thrust of 53.5596 tonnes on the pipe from internal water pressure and bend. 2) The sizing of a concrete thrust block 3.2m x 3.2m x 3.2m to resist this thrust. Calculations show it can provide 82.58512 tonnes of resisting force. 3) A factor of safety of 2.11445, confirming the thrust block design is sufficient to safely counterac
