Design of Depressed Invert Culverts
The hydraulic characteristics of a depressed invert culvert were studied. Also, a design procedure for depressed invert culverts is outlined. The hydraulic characteristics were studied by reviewing pertinent literature and by the use of a hydraulic model. The design procedure is similar to that already used by state hydrologists. Formulas for determining the geometric properties of a depressed invert culvert are presented. The hydraulic model was used to determine the discharge coefficients for a depressed invert culvert flowing under inlet control and set flush to a vertical headwall. A literature review was performed which examined velocity profiles, flow over permeable beds, and flow resistance in culverts and over rough beds. The design procedure is applicable to depressed invert culverts flowing under nonsubmerged conditions and set flush to a vertical headwall. The design procedure can be used as an outline for the development of a comprehensive design manual for depressed invert culverts.
