Accidents from culvert failure can also occur if a culvert has not been adequately sized and a flood event overwhelms the culvert, or disrupts the road or railway above it. Ongoing culvert function without failure depends on proper design and engineering considerations being given to load, hydraulic flow, surrounding soil analysis, backfill and ...
Baffles may be installed along the culvert to provide some fish-friendly alternative. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] But baffles can reduce drastically the culvert discharge capacity for a given afflux, [ 3 ] thus increasing substantially the total cost of the culvert structure to achieve the same design discharge and afflux, or increasing the risk of road ...
A large number of Indian Standard (IS) codes are available that are meant for virtually every aspect of civil engineering one can think of. During one's professional life one normally uses only a handful of them depending on the nature of work they are involved in. Civil engineers engaged in construction activities of large projects usually have to refer to a good number of IS codes as such ...

Single box girder bridge , flyover above eastern approach of the San Francisco–Oakland Bay Bridge. A box girder bridge, or box section bridge, is a bridge in which the main beams comprise girders in the shape of a hollow box. The box girder normally comprises prestressed concrete, structural steel, or a composite of steel and reinforced concrete.
Highway engineering (also known as roadway engineering and street engineering) is a professional engineering discipline branching from the civil engineering subdiscipline of transportation engineering that involves the planning, design, construction, operation, and maintenance of roads, highways, streets, bridges, and tunnels to ensure safe and effective transportation of people and goods.
A simple design is a manhole that allows a sanitary worker to open and close a value from the ground level to perform water filling and flushing operations. Water source for flushing manholes can come from potable water, tidal water, or water from clarifiers of sewage treatment plants [ 1 ] [ 29 ]
