to cckai
if the pipe is c.s pipe with concrete inside &outside you need 100mm up down r&left side for sand protection.
if the pipe is sewer or drain pipe its depend if the depth of the backfill is under 100cm
you need concrete protection with iron arming the width of the trench is d+200mm each side.else d+100mm each side for sand protection

with regard gabai yoram

if there is any vehicular movement across the pipe trench then a different method is used. i.e. main pipe is protected with a sleeve pipe one size higher than the main pipe.
also please note while using digger buckets/ shovels may damage the pipe, the coating/ wrapping / cathodic protection if applied. this 250 mm is enough if the location is totally new & single and no other piping is existing.
how the compaction is going to help. it only increases the cost and extra stress on the pipe.
please clarify.

the good engineering practice for trench width is the diameter of the pipe + clearence of 3" on either side of the pipe ( at one meter depth).

Can I konw how you determine this (250mm) ?

   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.
