Precast Concrete Box Culvert Specs

This document provides specifications for precast concrete box culverts, including span, rise, wall and slab thicknesses, waterway areas, and approximate weights per linear foot for various box culvert sizes. It notes that precast box culverts have been designed to replace cast-in-place culverts due to shorter installation times, convenience, and better quality control during manufacturing. Finally, it states that box culverts are intended to complement concrete pipe by allowing a large flow area with minimal height.

Why square pipe?


Precast box culverts have not been designed to replace round, arch or elliptical pipe.
They have been designed to replace cast-in-place culverts because of shorter
installation time, convenience to the public and better quality control in plant
manufacturing.
Box culverts are designed to complement concrete pipe by providing a large area of
flow with the smallest possible head space.
