Do you guys know what is the minimum concrete cover above a 24 in CMP (Corrugated Metal Pipe) to be placed underneath an access road? Is there a standard detail that might have this information?

THANKS

For concrete cover I am not aware of a minimum. Sometimes the pipe manufacturer may have that info. Typically its compacted soil or gravel cover requirements.
