Courbon Method

This document provides information about different types of culverts and provides an example design of a reinforced concrete slab culvert. It lists common culvert materials like pipe, concrete, and steel. It then gives sample design calculations for the dimensions, dead loads, and bending moments of an RC slab culvert with a 5m clear span and 3m height over a 12m wide bridge.

A culvert is a structure that allows water


to flow under a road,
railroad, trail, or similar obstruction from
one side to the other side.
Typically embedded so as to be
surrounded by soil, a culvert may be
made from a pipe, reinforced concrete or
other material.

Width of bridge: 12m
No footpath provided

Clear span =5m
Height of vent =3.0m
Wearing course thickness =56mm asphalt concret

Design of deck slab


(i)Preliminary dimensions:
(ii)Slab thickness assumed 550mm
(iii)Using 20mm dia bar & clear cover 50 mm

Dead loads

Weight per m^2 of Slab

= thickness x density of concrete


= 0.550 x 25
=13.75 KN

Wearing course per m^2 of slab =2.0 KN/m^2


Total dead load = 15.75 KN/M^2

Bending moment due to dead load


=57.40875 KNm
