That is the funny thing about concrete pipe. You can see the chains running over the front pipe? Well those are attached to 3/8" cables that run all the way to the back of the load. Those secure the pipe into a seemingly solid object. That and wedge blocks on the front and rear it all acts as a solid piece. It's kinda weird and hard for me to explain. Besides, you never seem to have pipe move on you unless it is under 24" and then you use V boards and straps on the top layer to prevent the side to side movement. I have never had any on the bottom layer move, it's only when you have a second layer of pipe.
These are 18" pipes and here is what I do. The pipe wants to walk the bell end off the top and since you do not want the bell to sit on the male end there was room for the 4x4s up there.

Got a gravy day, brought this load to NRG Stadium so our boys from Royal Purple Raceway can put some sticky stuff down to build their drag strip for the races today.
So I sit here until they are done and then haul it back
