When a pipe is placed in an excavated trench to move water away, it is known as pipe culvert. It is the most commonly used drainage feature. Economy and ease of installation have made this type of culvert very popular.
Pipe-Arch Culvert allows for greater flows at lower elevations while providing for a lower profile culvert when soil cover is limited.
In the construction industry, culverts are structures that allow water to flow under a road, railroad, trail or other obstruction. They are typically embedded in and surrounded by soil. Culverts come in many different shapes and sizes, including round, elliptical, flat-bottomed, pear-shaped and box.
Concrete arch culvert does not take a lot of time in construction unlike box culvert, water diversion is not necessary, as it can be installed without disturbing the water current. Thus, it can be termed as a Low Profile Culvert.
A Concrete culvert is a tunnel that carries a stream beneath a road or railway. A culvert can serve as a bridge for transportation to cross. They are often found in natural water flows and function as a bridge or a current flow controller.
