Help I manufacture and install shade sails, typically using sched 40 steel pipe as the posts on the corners. Most pipe information displays the strength from pressure from the inside, but my real world application is to take a pipe, let's say 14' long, dig a 4' x 16" hole, and bury the pipe...

I am a 47 year old businessman with physics training only through experience. But I am physics curious. I am interested in asking the forum a question or for a strength calculation of pipe. How do you ask a question for anyone on the forum to flex their mental muscles?
