Good side fill is ob- tained froma granular material with litle or no plas- ticity and free of organic material, ie., AASHTO classification groups A-1, A-2, and A-3, compacted to.a minimum 90% of standard density based on AASHTO Specification T 99 (ASTM D 698). @) The density of the embankment material above the pipe must be determined. See Article 6.2. (b) Dimensions of sol envelope. ‘The general recommended criteria for lateral limits of the culvert soil envelope areas follows: (1) Trench installations—2-feet minirmum each side ‘of culvert. This recommended limit should be modified as necessary to account for variables such as poor in situ soils. Q) Embankment insiallations—one diameter or span cach side of culvert. @) The minimum upper limit ofthe soil envelope is 1 foot above the culver. 121.62 Pipe Arch Design ‘The design of the comer backfill shall account for ‘comer pressure which shall be considered to be approxi mately equal to thrust divided by the radius of the pipe arch corner. The soil envelope around the comers of pipe aches shall be eapable of supporting this pressure. 1216.3 Arch Design 121.6.3.1 Special design considerations may be ap- plicable; a buried flexible structure may raise two impor- tant considerations. The fist is that it is undesirable to ‘make the metal arch relatively unyielding or fixed com- pared with the adjacent sidefill. The use of massive foot- ings or piles to prevent any settlement of the arch is gen- erally nat recommended. ‘Where poor materials are encountered, consideration shouldbe given to removing some oral of this poor ma- terial and replacing it with acceptable material ‘The footing should be designed to provide uniform longitudinal settlement, of acceptable magnitude from 2 functional aspect. Providing forthe arch to setle will pro- tect it from possible drag dow forces caused by the eon- solidation ofthe adjacent sidefil ‘The second consideration is bearing pressure of soils under footings. Recognition must be given to the effect of ‘depth of the base of footing and he direction of the foot ing eaction ftom the arc. Footing reactions forthe meta arch are considered to act tangential to the metal plate at its point of connection tothe footing. The value ofthe reaction isthe thrust in the ‘metal arch plate atthe footing. 12.16.32. Invert slabs and other appropriate mea- sures shall be provided to anticipate scour. Copyright 2002 AASHTO.

For diameters ‘ptoand including 48 inches, the minimum clea spacing shall nt be less than 2 fect. 121.9 End Treatment Protection of end slopes may require special consid- ‘ration where backwater conditions may occur, of where crosion and uplift could be a problem. Culvert ends con- stitute a major run-off-the-road hazard if not properly de- signed. Safety treatment, such as structurally adequate erating that conforms to the embankment slope, exten- sion of culvert length beyond the point of hazard, or pro- ion of guardrail, are among the alternatives to be con- sidered. End walls on skewed alignment require a special design, 12.110 Construction and Installation ‘The construction and installation shall conform to Sec~ tion 23—Division IL 12.2 SERVICE LOAD DESIGN Service Load Design is a working stress method, as ra- ditionally used for culvert design, 122.1 Wall Area as (122) where: ‘A = required wall area in square inches per foot; ‘T, = thrust, service load in pounds per foot; f, = allowable stress-specified minimum yield point, pounds per square inch, divided by safety factor, fySE.

Ifthe siefill will stile more than the structure, detailed analysis may be required. Q) Settlements along the longitudinal centerline of arch structures mast be limited to maintain slope and preclude footing eracks (arches). Where the structure will settle uniformly with the adjacent sols, long spans with fall inverts can be built on a eamber to achieve a proper final grade. () Differential setlements across the structure (from springline to springline) shall ot exceed 0.01 (Span)! rise in order to limit excessive rotation ofthe structure. More restrictive settlement limits may be requited to protect pavements, or to limit longitudinal differential deflections. Copyright 2002 AASHTO. All rights reserved.

Footing Design Reinforced concrete footings shall be designed in ac- cordance with Article 4.4 to limit settlements to the re- auirements of Article 12.7.3. Footings should be sized to provide bearing pressures ‘equal to or greater than those exerted by the structural backfill on the foundation. Ths helps to ensure that if set- tements do occur the footings and backfill will settle in approximately equal amounts avoiding excessive dra down loads on the structure. 12.74 Soll Envelope Design Structural backfill material inthe envelope around the structure shall meet the requirements of Article 12.7.4.1 12732 The width of the envelope, on each side of the structure shall be sized to limit shape change during construction activities outside the envelope and to control deflections under service loads. (See Articles 12.7.4.2 and 12.7.4). 127.4.1 Soil Requirements Granular type soils shall be used as structure backfill (the ‘envelope next to thé metal stracture). The order of prefer- cence of acceptable stracture backfill materials is as follows: (#) Well-graded sand and gravel; sharp, rough, or an- gular if possible, (b) Uniform sand or gravel. (©) Approved stabilized sol shall be used only under direct supervision of a competent, experienced soils Engineer. Plastic sols shall not be used, ‘The structure backfill material shall conform to one of the following soil classifications from AASHTO M 145, ‘Table 2: for height of fill ess than 12 feet, A-I, A-3, A-2-4, and A-2-5; for height of fill of 12 feet and more, A-1, A-3. Structure Backfill shall be placed and compacted to not less than 90% density per AASHTO T 180. 12.4.2 Construction Requirements “To control shape change ftom construction activities ‘outside the envelope in trench conditions, the structural backfill envelope shall extend to the trench wall and be ‘compacted against it. Altemativey, the structural backfill ‘must extend an adequate distance o protect the shape of the structure from construction loads. The remaining trench width can be filled with suitable backfill material com- pcted to mect the requirements of Article 12.7.43. Inem- ‘bankment conditions, the minimum structural backfill with shall be 6 feet. Where dissimilar materials not meet- ing geotechnical filter criteria are used adjacent to each other, a suitable geotextile must be used to avoid migration. 1274.3. Service Requirements To limit defections under service loads, the width of the envelope on each side of the structure shall be ade- {quate to limit horizontal compression strain to 1% ofthe structure's span on each side ofthe structure. Ths is a de- sign limit—not a performance limit. Any span increase that occurs is principally due to the consolidation of the side support materials as the structure is loaded during backtiling. These are construction movements that aten uate when fall cover is reached, Limiting horizontal compression strain requires an evaluation ofthe widih and quality of the structural back fill material selected as well asthe in situ, embankment or ‘other fill materials within the zone, on each side of the Copyright 2002 AASHTO.

Step bevel, full bevel and skewed ends all involve cutting the plates within a ring. Each has its own structural considerations. ‘Step bevels cut the comer (end side on pear and high profile arch shapes) plates on a diagonal (bevel) to match the fill slope. The following limits apply: ‘+ The rise ofthe top step must be equal to or greater than the rise ofthe top arc; thus plates in the top arc, are le uncut. + The bottom step “—for structures with inverts, must meet the re- quirements for atop step. for arches, must be a minimum of 6 inches.

The headwall must extend an adequate dis- tance above the crown ofthe structure to be capable ‘of reaching the ring compression thrust forees from the cut plates. In addition to normal active earth and live load pressures, the headwall wll react to a com- ponent ofthe radial pressure exerted by the structure (See Anicte 12.7.4.3). 12.782 Balanced Support Soil support must be relatively balanced from side to side, perpendicularly across the structure. In lieu of “a special design, slopes running perpendicularly across the structure are limited to a maximum of 10%, for Fron it (psf? Wve load pressure (psf) on the crown cover heights of 10 feet or less, and to 15% for higher covers. Unbalanced soil support occurs whenevera structure is skewed oan embankment.

Resulting hydraulic gradients, ‘with the water level higher in the baekfill than in the pipe, ‘must be limited to levels that will not buckle the invertor float the structure, Buckling may be evaluated using Art- cle 12.723 assuming the span ofthe stractureis twice the invert radius. Where uplift can be a concern, design typi- cally employs adequate cut-off walls and other means to seal off water flow into the structural backfill 127.534 Seour ‘Scour design shall meet the requirements of Article 4.4.5.2, Where erodible soils are encountered, varying de- grees of conventional means of scour protection may be ‘employed to meet requirements. Deep foundations such as piles or eaissons are not to bbe used without a special design that considers differen- tial settlement and provides a means fo retain the struc- tural backfill ifscour proceeds below the pile cap, ete. 12.7.6 Multiple Structures Care must be exercised on the design of multiple, closely spaced structures to control unbalanced loading. Fills should be kept level over the series of structures when possible. Significant roadway grades across a series of structures require checking of the stability ofthe flexi- ble structures under the resultant unbalanced loading. 128 STRUCTURAL PLATE BOX CULVERTS 128.1 General Structural plate box eulverts (hereafter “box culverts”) are composite reinforcing rib-plate structures of approni- ‘mate rectangular shape. Box culverts are intended for shallow covers and low wide waterway openings. The shallow covers and extreme shapes of box culverts require special design procedures. Requirements of Articles 12.1 through 12.7 are not applicable to box culver designs un less included in Anicle 12.8 by specific reference. 1281.1 Scope ‘Article 128 presents structural capacity requirements for box culverts based on the load factor method. Standard 127532 shapes, soil requirements, and permissible product details for box culverts in compliance with this specification are defined. 1282 Structural Standards ‘The design citetia presented in subsequent articles are applicable only 6 structures in compliance with the stan- dards described in Article 128 1282.1 Structural plate box culverts shall be bolted. ‘The box eulvert materials specifications are ‘Aluminum Steel AASHTO M219 AASHTO M 167 1282.2. Reinforcing ribs shall be an aluminum ot ‘steel structural section curved to fit the structural plates. Ribs shall be bolted to the plates soasto develop the plas tic moment capacity required. Spacing between ribs shall not exceed 2 feet on the crown and 4.5 fect on the haunch. Rib splices shall develop the plastic moment eapacity re- quired atthe location ofthe spice. 12823 Plastic moment capacities ofibbed sections ‘may be computed using minimum yield strength values. for both rib and corrugated shell. Such computed values ‘may be used for design only after they have been con- firmed by representative flexural test data. (Reference At- ticle 1048.1). 1283. Structure Backfill 1283.1 Structure backfill material shall conform to the requirements of Article 12.7.2.4, compacted to a min- imum 95% of standard density based on AASHTO T 99 or 90% of standard density based on AASHTO T 180, 1283.2 Specified structure backfill material shall be 43 feet wide, minimum, at the footing and shall extend up- ‘ward tothe road base elevation.

Deflection or Flattening 1535.1 Deflection of a tunnel depends significantly on the amount of over-excavation of the bore and is af- fected by delay in backpacking or inadequate backpack- . The magnitude of deflection is not primarily a func tion of soil modulus or the liner plate properties, so it cannot be computed with usual deflection formulae, 183.52 Where the tunnel clearances are important, the designer should oversize the stracture to provide for a normal deflection. Good construction methods should result in deflections of not more than 3% of the normal diameter. Copyright 2002 AASHTO. All rights reserved.
