Box culvert bridge design
Box culvert bridge design
(OP)
Hi
Could you please guide me to find a text book that shows from A to Z solved example of a box culvert bridge analysis and design (Concrete structure)
I am also looking for a software that will do the same thing.
Please let me know.
Thanks

RE: Box culvert bridge design
As for software, most use generic structural analysis software. There really isn't a specific software available to do this. I think a program exist for single boxes. But obviously that is very limited.

Allan,
how many cells, depth of cover, governing code, etc?
A spreadsheet can be written to account for the above. The first one takes a while but the second one is a snap. I've got sheets for 1 thru 4 cells.
RE: Box culvert bridge design
Thanks. It is just one cell up to 6m span and 4m rise. the topping could be a distribution slab or between 0.6 to 4m height toping.
Please let me know.
Thanks again.

Still any back up or spreadsheet to ward analysis of box culverts or HY-Spans would be really appreciated.
Thank you again.

The MTO in Ontario, Canada has "Concrete Culvert Design and Detailing Manual" which covers up to 6 metre spans and 4 metre vertical openings for rigid frame open footing culverts and box culverts.
