This document contains calculations for determining the required size of thrust blocks for 37 elbow joints in a pipeline. For each elbow, it lists the coordinates, soil properties, pipe size, anticipated water pressure, calculated thrust force, required height, width, depth, and volume of the concrete thrust block. Heights of blocks range from 2.19 to 17.09 feet, widths from 4.36 to 56.08 feet, and volumes from 26.29 to 14,154.65 cubic feet.
