Load Calculations

This document provides design details for a reinforced concrete box culvert, including dimensions, material properties, general data, and calculations for loads. It lists the length, heights, thicknesses, concrete strength, soil properties, fill depth, and whether the culvert contains water. Load calculations include the self-weight of the structure, earth pressures, live loads from traffic and surcharge, water pressure, and AASHTO live loads for design. Live load intensities and strip widths are also specified.
