What type of structure does a culvert belong to?

According to the structural form, culverts can be divided into round pipe culverts, arch culverts, cover culverts and box culverts.

The round tube culvert consists of two parts: the hole body and the hole entrance. The cave body is the main body of the water channel, which is mainly composed of the pipe body, foundation and joints. The opening is the connection between the cave body, roadbed and water flow. There are two main opening types: eight-shaped wall and one-shaped wall.

Prefabricated tubular culverts are divided into: cement pipe culverts and steel galvanized corrugated pipe culverts. Steel corrugated culverts are also called corrugated pipe culverts, which are used for culverts buried under roads and railways. Threaded corrugated pipe is a circular steel structural pipe made of corrugated steel sheets or assembled with corrugated steel sheets. The corrugated structure of the metal corrugated pipe culvert can make the culvert road surface bear reasonable stress, evenly distribute the load, and have a certain anti-deformation ability, which can solve the problem of damage to bridges and pipe culvert concrete structures in cold areas in the north (frost); making the road surface without Expansion joints improve driving comfort; help improve the "staggered" phenomenon at the junction of soft soil foundation structures and embankments, and improve driving safety. The post-construction operation and maintenance costs of corrugated pipe culverts are low, and the actual project cost is also lower than bridges and culverts of similar spans.
