1.1 Dead Loads
The nominal dead doad consist of the weight of the materials and the
part of the structure
Structural Unit Weight of Concrete shall be taken as 24 kN/m3
Engineering Becouse of the arching of soil, check whether the depth above culvert is
Design in > 3 x width of culvert ( in which case limit depth to 3 x width )

Soil
Engineering Casses of conduit installation consider as Ditch Conduit
(Spangler & Ditch Conduit
Handy) A ditch conduit is defined as one which is instaled in a relatively narrow
ditch dug in passive or undisturbed soil and wich is then covered with earth
backfill.
