Good Day.

Im currently doing burried preinsulated piping stress analysis but im having doubt which type of restrait i'll select for the nodes entering and leaving the concrete valve chamber.

I attached a sketch of the concrete valve chamber for reference.

Thank you very much.

To model the entry and exit from the concrete chamber, delete the soil restraints at those two node points and input rigid guide and Y restraints.
