30 DESIGN OF CULVERTS FOR RURAL ROADS
Culverts

12 Details of floor protection for Box Culverts 31 Introduction:

In an all weather communication facility construction of
cross drainage works is equally and some times more
important than the road proper. In any road the number of
required culverts are usually large and hence the expenditure
on this alone is an appreciable amount of the total road cost.
: The rough requirement is one for every 500 meters to avoid
\
water logging & effective drainage.
There is a wide scope of economy while making a
choice of the type of culvert and on adaptation of the
appropriate design in deciding of its components.
Readily adoptable designs should be made available
today for traffic other than heavy traffic permissible on national
highways and state highways. In this publication design for
light traffics which are common for our village roads and some
other district roads and town streets are provided; making it
easy for adoption in the field.
This deals with only small nullah and streams with
defined banks and some times without them, of widths
ranging from one meter to maximum six meters only on roads
to carry light traffic during its lifetime.
The economics involved in culvert construction can be
appreciated better from the following.
a) For a 3m span and 2.5 m high nala crossing the cost
per meter for the slab culvert designed as per SP13 of IRe
would be Rs.38,450.00
b) If it is spanned by a box culvert as per MOST
standards the cost would be Rs.29,580,OO per meter. Thus
there is a saving of 23% with the choice of the culvert type.
c) With the present design for the rural roads the slab
culvert would cost Rs.25,270,00 and q box culvert
Rs.18,622,00 per meter and there is economy of 26% in
choosing a box culvert in place of a slab culvert.

Having decided for a culvert at a location the choice
available is as follows:
a. Hume pipe culvert
b. Slab culvert
c. Box culvert

4. LOADING CRITERIA
Before the "Rural Road Manual" was made available in 2002,
the standard drawings and designs available in the country were
from Indian Roads Congress that cater for class 70R loading or
class A-A loading or class A loading which are pertinent for NH, SH
and MDRs to be upgraded to SH in near future. Village Roads, other
district roads and other low traffic roads need not be designed for
such class of loading. On such roads the heaviest load for coming
twenty years may be that of a fully loaded Leyland truck. The
number of trucks plying may be more but the class of truck not
heavier than this loading class.
The design of road pavement may depend on the number of
This is an effort of making available at the grass root level, of
the execution drawing, which is very much lacking at the present
day. At present mostly some available sketch for some other
location is being adopted or one is drawn without proper regard to
various design considerations.
Even after exercising the right choice for a location, without
standardization it is difficult to achieve the desired result in the
interiors of the country.
Limits Considered:
All varieties of slab and box culverts can be covered almost
within the following ranges for the above mentioned class of roads.

Except for the above two considerations the floor l

the abutment and wings are loosened due to 5
