Earth Pressures on Reinforced Concrete Box Culverts
An 8 ft. by 44 ft. reinforced concrete box culvert was constructed and instrumented with twenty pressure cells on the top and side slabs, and with six resistance strain gauges on the tension rein-forcing steel in the top slab. Earth pressures, reinforcing steel strains and top slab deflections were measured for various combinations of dead load and live load. A set of empirical equations was developed to fit the measured earth pressures. These equations account for the effect of individual wheel leads applied at any point on the horizontal roadway above the culvert. Reinforcing steel stresses, calculated from the measured strains are also presented.
