The American Concrete Pipe Association (ACPA) and Ontario Concrete Pipe Association (OCPA) have concrete pipe design manuals that can be viewed online at the links below. Both include useful information for specifying and designing with concrete pipe with the indirect design method - specifiying a Class or D-Load of pipe.
The American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) 15-98 Standard Practice for Direct Design of Buried Precast Concrete Pipe Using Standard Installations. This is the basis for ‘SIDD' or ‘Direct Design' of concrete pipe.
