What exactly does this structure designed to do? Posted: 09 Mar 2013 09:00 PM PST Can anyone tell me exactly what this structure is designed to do? It is rock studded concrete apron located upstream of a grated pit adjacent to a railway underpass. I am guessing it is designed to dissipate the energy of the stormwater entering the pit to ensure their is no overshoot on to the railway line below, but I'm not 100% sure that this is its function.
