you need some clearance at each side to compact the bedding material. In smaller sizes, width is determined by other factors such as shovel/digger bucket width joint making and compaction access.

Do you know the minimum width of the trench for a 100mm diameter pipe, which will be considered as embankment backfill ? Is there any standard formula to determine the trench width for embankment backfill for the various pipe size ? Please guide me.
Thank you.
Regards,
cckla
