Hi, friend,

      Well I think we must read a topic on Flexibilty on pipelines,anchor block is use in a long straight buried pipelines to received the overstress between the underground portion and the above grade pipeline.Sometimes the cover of the pipelines is not enough to handle the uplift forces during stress analysis.One reason they put the anchor block.Best to do is to run a complete stress analysis of your pipeline by caesar stress analysis program.

hope this will help you...

friend.
