👉Types of Culverts
🚧1.Pipe Culvert
⏺Circular, Elliptical, or Pipe Arch shape. Made of concrete, steel, or PVC. Used for small streams or drainage under roads.
⏺Easy to install and cost-effective.
🚧2.Box Culvert
⏺Rectangular or square in shape, made of RCC.
⏺Used for large discharges and urban drainage.
⏺Can carry road traffic directly above.
🚧3.Arch Culvert
⏺Arch-shaped structure made of stone masonry, brick, or RCC.
⏺Used for moderate flow and offers aesthetic appeal.
🚧4.Slab Culvert
⏺RCC slab over masonry or concrete abutments.
⏺Used for small spans (up to 3 m).
⏺Simple and economical for short crossings.
🚧5.Bridge Culvert
⏺Combination of bridge and culvert structure.
⏺Used for large spans and heavy flow areas.
⏺Acts both as a bridge and a culvert.
🚧6.Pipe Arch Culvert
⏺Arch-like pipe with a wide bottom, used when headroom is limited but wide flow is needed.
⏺Better hydraulic efficiency than circular pipes.
🚧7.Scupper Culvert
⏺Used to drain water from bridge decks or roads.
⏺Usually small openings along bridge sides.
