Analysis of a corrugated metal box type culvert

Abstract Details

1989, Master of Science (MS), Ohio University, Civil Engineering (Engineering).

The structural behavior of circumferentially stiffened low-profile box type corrugated steel culvert, which is covered by shallow soil cover, is investigated. Culvert deflections and strains were monitored at culvert section due to live load, backfill. Values of vertical, horizontal deflection and circumferential moment, thrust are calculated at the exact center of the culvert length. These values are compared to analytical results based on the finite element method using CANDE (Culvert Analysis and Design). It applies no interface elements and compaction effects during construction simulation. The analyses are performed the actual sequence of construction of the culvert as closely as possible.
