Example Problem #2 (SI Units) A new culvert at a roadway crossing is required to pass a 50-year flow rate of 8.5 m³/s. Use the following site conditions: ELhd: 33.528 m based on adjacent structures Shoulder Elev: 34.595 m Elevation of Stream Bed at Culvert Face: 30.48 m Natural Stream Slope: 2 percent Tailwater Depth: 1.219 m Approximate Culvert Length: 76.200 m Design a reinforced concrete box culvert for this installation. Try both square edges and 45degree beveled edges in a headwall. Do not depress the inlet (no FALL). Note: Hardcopy Design Chart 8A, 10A, 14A, and 15A are used in this solution. 60
Example Problem #2 (English Units) A new culvert at a roadway crossing is required to pass a 50-year flow rate of 300 ft³/s. Use the following site conditions: ELhd: 110 ft based on adjacent structures Shoulder Elev: 113.5 ft Elevation of Stream Bed at Culvert Face: 100.0 ft. Natural Stream Slope: 2 percent Tailwater Depth: 4.0 ft Approximate Culvert Length: 250 ft Design a reinforced concrete box culvert for this installation. Try both square edges and 45degree beveled edges in a headwall. Do not depress the inlet (no FALL). Note: Hardcopy Design Chart 8B, 10B, 14B, and 15B are used in this solution. 61
