Casing Extraction
Gerald
Consider the largest casing dimension
The information of casing given by Tuksu E&C as below:
Casing diameter = 1.8 m
Casing thickness = 20 mm
Maximum Casing length = 15 m
Casing height above ground = 10 m
Casing height below ground = 5 m (consider one-third of casing left in ground)
Self weight of casing = 150 kN
(I) Casing over-turning Check
FOS of casing overturning = Stablizing moment
Destabilizing moment
= Soil passive support resistance
casing tilting
Take the base of casing to check the casing over-turning.
(a)Destabilizing moment
Moment due to casing itself when it's tilted = 150 x e (e=eccentricity of casing due to tilting)
By considering maximum tilt angle to be 6 degree, maximum allowable tilitng, e =15/2 TAN 6 =0.8m
Destabilizing moment due to casing tilting =150 x 0.8
= 120 kNm
(b) Stabilizing moment
By considering first 5m of soil to be FILL with friction angle 30degree,
Soil passive support = [0.5 x kp x (soil density-water density) x h x Ac x h/3] +
[0.5 x (water density) x h x Ac x h/2]
Soil depth as casing passive support =5m
Casing in contact area act as soil passive resistance =Ac =2.8 m2
Soil passive support = [0.5 x 3 x (18-9.8) x 5 x 2.8 x 5/3] +[0.5 x 9.8 x 5 x 2.8 x 5/2]
= 287 +172 kNm
= 459 kNm
Note: The allowable tilting of casing during extraction = 1/75.
