Im not sure how to analyze this.
I have a 8ft dia. pipe casing that I am submerging into the mud in 10 ft of water. the top is open. What i need to find is if the .25" wall thickness is sufficent to keep the casing from collapsing. I know i have about 624 psf at the bottom of the casing, but how do I determine if the casing can handle it?
Assume Fy of the steel is 36ksi.
Let me know if i need to provide any more information, or just state the assumption you made if you need to make one.
This is not a HW assignment, but something I am doing at work.
Thanks in advance!
