Hi! I would like to ask any idea regarding construction of a road across the river for about 15meters long? I will be using RC pipe as a culvert.

At its most basic this is simply a matter of lowering in your culvert pipe or pipes and backfilling around it quicker than the water washes it away.
You might want to explore or contact these people http://bridgestoprosperity.org/ whilst they are mainly suspension type foot bridges, they have lots of experience in more rural environments.
One option I saw was to use open ended containers as culverts set in concrete.
