Causes and Effects of Culvert Blockage during Large Storms
This paper presents data collected on the blockage of culverts and bridge openings by debris during a major storm. The dominant factor in determining the degree of blockage is the size of the structure's clear opening. Culvert or bridge openings greater than about 6 m are unlikely to block, and if they do block, it is likely to be only a partial blockage. Culverts with openings less than about 6 m are prone to blockage. The data collected for this storm indicates that these culverts can experience the full range, from unblocked to completely blocked.
