One of the general conditions for pipe culvert design calculations is inlet control, in which the flow rate through the culvert is controlled at the inlet end of the culvert by the culvert diameter and other inlet conditions. The other general condition is outlet control, in which the flow rate is controlled by the outlet conditions and the entire length of the culvert.
The Excel spreadsheet screenshot below shows part of a spreadsheet for circular culvert design calculations based on inlet control. Based on the indicated input values, the spreadsheet will calculate the minimum required pipe culvert diameter and the headwater depth for the next larger standard culvert diameter.

IMPORTANT NOTE: This 2/20/2020 release of BGS, Version 9.1.6 is a technical release intended to address Windows 10 compatibility and the false positives for malware by malware scanning software issues. The false positive for malware issue has persisted since shortly after the 02/12/2016 posting of BGS 9.1.6, as malware detection software began becoming increasingly more sensitive. The repackaging of the installer includes revised names and content for some documentation. The functionality of the compiled elements of the BGS software have not changed, hence the compile program version remains 9.1.6.
This TxDOT-customized version of PGSuper is versatile, user friendly, Windows-based software for the design, analysis, and load rating of multi-span precast-prestressed concrete bridge beams/girders in accordance with the AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specifications (thru the 9th Edition, 2020) and by TxDOT design policies and guidelines. Properties of TxDOT standard I-girders (TxGirders), U beams, slab beams, decked slab beams, box beams, and X-beams and TxDOT specific design criteria are included in templates and libraries published by TxDOT on a server accessible via the Internet. Thus, the software is capable of periodically updating the installed templates and libraries with the most current versions published by TxDOT. Though these templates and libraries are subject to change, the user may save PGSuper project data with its associated templates, libraries and settings in a .pgs file which can subsequently be opened by PGSuper preserving the templates, libraries, settings and design data of the bridges as originally designed.
Custom defined beam shapes that fit within each family of girder types supported by PGSuper can also be added to the user copy of the templates, thereby extending the girder shapes that the user can design, analyze, and load rate with the program.
The flexural design feature computes the required number and pattern of prestressing strands and the minimum required release and final concrete strengths. Specification checking evaluates girders for compliance with strength, serviceability, and detailing criteria. Horizontal and vertical shear design, analysis, and load rating is also facilitated.
A variety of results reporting is provided, including exhaustive and comprehensive reports, reports tailored to specific design or analysis features, fabricator optional design evaluation reports, and a TxDOT Girder Schedule Report ("TxDOT CAD Output").
CULV5 is an analysis tool for concrete box culverts. The program determines the forces acting on each of the different members of the culvert using the direct stiffness method. The user provides input data for loading conditions, structure geometry, and member sizes. The program outputs the member forces for use in either a working stress design or a load factor design in accordance with the AASHTO Standard Specifications for Highway Bridges, 17th Ed. for highway loadings, and AREMA 2006 in the case of E72 and E80 loadings.
Properties of standard I beams, Dbl-T beams, U beams, Slab beams, Box beams, TxGirders, Decked Slab beams and X-beams are included in the program's beam section library. User defined beam shapes can be designed and analyzed using the non-standard beam option.
See the PSTRS14 Support Information Document, linked in the same manner as the PSTRS14 v6.1.1 User Guide, for instructions on how to report bugs and wishes about program functionality or get technical support. Technical support is available to all TxDOT PSTRS14 users and any consultant PSTRS14 users designing bridges for TxDOT.
UT Lift is an easy to use, macro-programmed Excel spreadsheet for determining the behavior during lifting of straight and horizontally curved steel I-girders with one crane and two lift clamps.
CIRIA operates a print on demand service for this title. The fees cover the cost of printing and dispatch directly from the printer. Please click here if you wish to order a printed copy.Adopting a 'whole life' approach to the design and operation of culverts, screens and outfalls, this manual replaces two previous guidance documents, CIRIA C689 Culvert design and operation guide (Balkham et al, 2010) and the Environment Agency's Trash and security screen guide (Graham et al, 2009). The manual reflects the significant changes that have occurred in asset management over the last 20 years, supplementing the outfall and culvert design sections of the UK Design manual for roads and bridges (DMRB).Written by a team of specialists in hydrology, hydraulics, civil engineering and asset management and guided by a panel drawn from representative bodies of infrastructure operators and contractors, this manual is for use in all the nations of the UK and has sections relevant to designers, managers and asset owners.Spreadsheet appendices from the publication, containing both initial need assessments for security and debris screens, as well as checklists for culverts, outfalls and screens is available in a downloadable zip file.
There are also different kinds of bridges having different kind of structure. Structural engineers or bridge engineers often face difficulties to design structural elements. It is not always possible to design structures with the help of basic bridge structure software. Here the bridge design and analysis spreadsheet comes in handy for the engineers who are associated with bridge engineering.
To achieve quick summary of divergent sections and parts of diversified bridges, the bridge design excel sheet is made. This spreadsheet is particularly aimed for creating the design of different sectors and elements of bridge in accordance with the necessity of engineers.
Floodplain connectivity is critical to channel stability. Both floodplain and channel work in balance to manage the water and sediment delivered to them. The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) has been conducting studies to assess and quantify benefits of applying site-based land form measurements into the design of infrastructure placed on our waterways.
A set of procedures are available to document site land form metrics to be used in site design. An interactive spreadsheet form will help document basic land form metrics that designers can apply into site design.
Limit State Box Culvert Design IRC:6-1966 is a code of practice developed by the Indian Roads Congress (IRC) for the design of box culverts. Box culverts are precast concrete or masonry structures used for the passage of water under roads, railways, and other transportation infrastructures.
The design of box culverts using IRC:6-1966 involves considering the various limit states or failure modes that may occur during the service life of the culvert. These limit states include the ultimate limit state (ULS) and the serviceability limit state (SLS).
The ultimate limit state refers to the maximum load or stress that the culvert can withstand without failure. The design of the culvert involves ensuring that it can withstand the maximum loads that may occur during its service life, such as traffic loads, soil and water pressures, and seismic forces.
The serviceability limit state refers to the acceptable level of deformation or deflection that the culvert can undergo without affecting its function or safety. The design of the culvert involves ensuring that the deflections and deformations do not exceed the acceptable limits, which can affect the hydraulic capacity and structural stability of the culvert.
The IRC:6-1966 provides guidelines and procedures for the design of box culverts, including the determination of the design loads, selection of the appropriate culvert size and shape, calculation of the reinforcement and concrete thickness, and evaluation of the hydraulic and structural performance of the culvert using appropriate analysis methods and criteria.
