A culvert is to be constructed across a branch canal to convey its flow underneath a proposed highway. The cross section of the canal and the highway at the culvert site are given below. The canal carries a design discharge of 10 m/s. The heading up at the culvert site should not exceed 15 cm. The following items are required: a) Hydraulic design for the concrete box section. (3 Marks) b) Draw and empirical dimensions for the culvert cross section. (1 Mark) 12.00 m L(culvert) =20.5m (18.70) S=0.003363 2:1 2:1 (17.20) (1720) Cent=0.20 Cross Section of Highway Cat0.40 Creck=0.145 6.00 m CL (17.70) 2:1 (17.20) (17.20) (16.70) HWL 1:1 Cross Section of Branch Drain (14.70) b = 7 m
