Weight of bottom slab will be directly counteracted by the corresponding ground reaction.
At any depth (h) from top slab, lateral pressure intensity (p)
Considering one metre run of the culvert and each member as a separate fixed member, Fixed end moments are:
ANALYSIS AND DESIGN METHODOLOGY:
The RCC box culvert will be designed as per the guidance provided in the civil technical specification. Earth pressure for
all under ground water storage structure shall be taken as at rest. In addition to earth pressure the vehicular traffic
load as per the IRC specification of Class "A" shall be taken into account. Manual load calculations are made and
analysed using the software STAAD pro for the loadings, bending moments and shear forces and design/detail shall be
made as per the manual calculation
Bending Moments
Considering maximum misspan section of slab for bending moment (M) = 7.532kNm
For top slab;
Assuming the depth of slab as 150mm with effective cover of 25mm.,
Depth available = 150-25 = 125 mm
Mu = 7.532 x 1.5 = 11.298 kNm
Mu,lim = b x d^2 x Q = 1000 x 125^2 x 3.45
= 53.9063 kNm < 11.3 kNm Hence depth is OK
