Gentlemen,

I have an anlysis done for a Pipeline, out of which certain portion was burried; apparently burried portion posed heavy reactions at the elbow, node 230, restrained so as shown in the model.

I would like to request you to please advise me as to what means or measures I should have to take to reduce these reactions or an alternate sort of restraint should I apply, for structural engineer would frown at me to have seen such hihger loads, as much as 713942N & -728370N.

Regards,

Mirza
