Specification of horizontal soil stiffness along pipeline axis (Input Table)

Data description/conditions:

Identifier: (toggleable)

Identification name of data reference point

Required

KLH1:

Horizontal soil stiffness just before and at data reference point

≥ 0.

KLH2:

Horizontal soil stiffness just after data reference point

≥ 0. / Undefined

(If KLH2=UNDEFINED it is assumed KLH2 = KLH1)

UNCF-L:

Uncertainty factor resulting in lower soil parameter KLH

≥ 1. / Undefined if UNCF-H is specified

[Default: 1.7]

(If UNCF-L = UNDEFINED it is assumed that UNCF-L = UNCF-H. UNCF-L is used when the uncertainty in table UNCER is set to Low)

UNCF-H:

Uncertainty factor resulting in higher soil parameter KLH

≥ 1. / Undefined if UNCF-L is specified

[Default: 1.7]

(If UNCF-H = UNDEFINED it is assumed UNCF-H = UNCF-L. UNCF-H is used when the uncertainty in table UNCER is set to High)

VARAR:

Half band width accuracy allowance percentage for soil parameter

> 0. and < 50. / Undefined if KLH1=KLH2=0.

[Default: 5.]
