1.0 DESIGN AND DETAILING OF BOX CULVERT


The Upper Krishna project constitutes of two dams:
 Almatti Dam
 Narayanpura Dam
Krishna Bhagya Jala Nigam Limited is implementing several lift irrigation scheme on the
Krishna basin to lift water and irrigate drought prone northern Karnataka districts.
Mulwad Lift Irrigation Scheme is taken on foreshore of Almatti reservoir:
 Scheme A consists of Stage I and Stage II required irrigating 30,850 hectares of lands up to
contour RL 560.00m and these works are already completed.
 Stage III required to irrigate 2,27,966 hectares of land up to contour RL 640.00m and the
work is in progress
Huvina Hipparagi Branch Canal
 The Stage III of MLIP is to lift water from RL 560m to RL 640m.
 It is the 3rd lift at RL 560m and is called the Bijapur Main Canal.
Huvinu Hipparagi Branch Canal takes off from the Bijapur Main Canal at chainage 11.070km
and runs for a length of 63.88kms to irrigate about 23,676 hectares with discharge of 13.152 cumecs
at chainage 0.00 km.
A natural stream (nalla) crosses the canal at chainage 55.680km for which box culvert is
proposed.

As per article 6.2.1 page 21 of IRC:SP 13-2004, the maximum flood discharge to be
adopted for design should be higher of the above values as design discharge Q, provided it does not
exceed the next highest discharge by more than 50%.
As per above clause,
First maximum discharge = 37.51 m3/s
Second maximum discharge = 26.23 m3/s
Design flood discharge Q,
should not exceed = 1.5 × 26.23 = 39.345 m3/s
From the above table,
Design flood discharge, Q = 37.51 m3/s is adopted from area velocity method.

3.1. VENT WAY REQUIREMENTS


Design flood discharge = 37.510 m3/s
Observed high flood level = 579.212 m
Lowest nalla bed level = 577.794 m
Depth of water in nalla = 1.418 m
Canal bed level = 580.928 m
Depth below CBL,
i.e. available vent height = 2.654 m
Maximum allowable velocity = 2.700 m/s (Cl. 8.8.5, Pg 6, IS 10430-2000)

= 13.893 m2
Providing vent height = 2.654 m
Vent width required = 5.235 m
Say vent width required = 3 m in 2 Nos.
Nalla width at crossing = 25 m
Area of vent provide = 2 × 3 × 2.654
= 15.924 m2
Total area of flow provided is more than required, Hence OK
∴ Provide two vent of 3 m width x 2.654 m depth box culvert. Also, provide splayed wing
walls with returns on either side of the vents since the width of nalla at crossing is greater than the
vent way.
.
Check for velocity = = 2.356 m/s
.
The velocity in the vent is less than the allowable maximum permissible limit, hence safe
Wetted perimeter of vents when full = 22.616 m
Hydraulic mean radius = 0.704
Longitudinal slope = 1 in 440
The longitudinal slope of culvert floor is flatter; hence make up the slope to 1:100.

Maximum scour depth = 1.27 x D (Cl. 10.4, IRC SP: 13– 2004)

Maximum scour level = H F L - Maximum scour depth
= 579.212 – 2.854

Depth of soft rock,
below nalla bed level = 3.2 m
Scour level = Nalla bed level – Top of soft rock

Hence provide cut off wall up to RL 574.594 m below lowest nalla be level.

4.2.1. DEAD LOAD (Cl. 203, pg. 5, IRC: 6-2014)
Volume of top slab = 6.6 x 0.40 x 1

Volume of bottom slab = 6.6 x 0.45 x 1

Volume of side walls = 2 x 3.08 x 0.4 x 1

Volume of center wall = 3.08 x 0.2 x 1

Effective width = 0.2 + 3 + 0.2 + 3 + 0.2

a) At soil section
Soil depth = (FBL – CBL) + canal lining

Therefore, weight of soil on top of box = (1.83 x 20)

Therefore, base pressure due to soil weight = (36.6 x 1)
= 36.6 kN/m
b) At canal section:-
Depth of water = FBL – CBL

Therefore, weight of water = 1.75 x 10 x 1

Depth of canal lining = 0.08 m
Therefore, weight of canal lining = 0.08 x 25 x 1

Design and Detailing of Box Culvert

The culvert is designed as a closed RCC structure. It is analyzed as plane frame of unit width
using standard STAAD.Pro software for DL+SIDL+EP+LL. The cross section is modeled with beam
members for 2D analysis. Since the bridge is resting on soil, the base slab is modeled considering
hinged support.

 FORCES ACTING ON STEM:
 Force due to Active Earth Pressure (AEP) = 0.5 x ka x ϒ x h2 x ϒearth pressure
= 0.5 x 0.2 x 0.4924 x 5.42 x 1.50
= 191.48 kN/m2
 Lever arm for AEP = 0.42 x h

 Force due to Live Load Surcharge (LLS) = LLS x h x ϒLLS
= 7.128 x 5.4 x 1.20
= 45.80 kN/m2
 Lever arm for LLS = h /2
= 5.40 / 2

 BENDING MOMENT AND SHEAR FORCE
 Bending Moment (Mu) = (191.48 x 2.27) + (45.80 x 2.70)
= 553.17 kN-m
 Shear Force (Vu) = 195.07 + 46.22

As per Cl. 16.6.1.1, max spacing must not exceed 2h (i.e. 600mm) or 250mm.

 DISTRIBUTION STEEL
As per cl.16.5.1.1, pg. 175, IRC: 112-2011, minimum reinforcement to be provided
should be 0.0013bd
∴Ast min = 0.0013 x 1000 x 515 = 669.50 mm2
Hence, provide 10 Ø bars @ 115 mm c/c as distribution steel for Stem.
 DEVELOPMENT LENGTH
As per Cl. 15.2.3.3, pg. 150, IRC: 112-2011, the Development Length (Ld) is given
by

Department of Civil Engineering, B.I.T. Page 77


Design and Detailing of Box Culvert

∅fyd
Ld =
4fbd
Where,
Ø = nominal diameter of the bar,
fyd = Design ultimate stress = fy/1.15
fbd = design values for favorable bond conditions given in Table 15.3.
From Table 15.3, pg. 150, IRC: 112-2011, the Design bond stress for M25 Concrete is 2.25
for deformed bars. Hence the value of Bond Stress is
fbd = 2.25 N/mm2
20×0.87×500
Ld = 4×2.25

Ld = 966.67 mm

 CURTAILMENT OF STEM REINFORCEMENT


The curtailment of main tension reinforcement has to be done at a section where the Area of
tension reinforcement required is 50%.
Steel provided for stem = 3695.99 mm2 i.e. 20mm Ø bars @ 85mm c/c
50% steel for stem = 1848.00 mm2 i.e. 20mm Ø bars @ 170mm c/c
B.M for 50% steel = 384.286 kN-m

Now, we need to calculate the height at which the BM is 384.286 kN-m.

h = 4.565 m from top of stem and 0.789 from bottom of stem
But Actual Curtailment length = height of 50% Ast + Ld
= 0.789 + 0.967
= 1.756 m
Hence, curtail every alternate main reinforcement for stem at a height of 1.80 m from the
bottom.

 CHECK FOR SHEAR


As per Cl. 10.3.2, pg. 88, IRC: 112-2011, the design shear resistance (VRd.c) must be greater
or equal to the shear force acting at that section (VEd.)
VRd.c = [0.12K(80ρ1fck)0.33 + 0.15σcp] bwd
Subjected to a minimum of VRd.c = (νmin + 0.15σcp]bwd
K=1+√(200/d) ≤ 2.0 where d is depth in mm.
νmin = 0.031K3/2 fck1/2
σcp is limited to 0.2 fcd (N/mm2) where σcp = NEd / Ac
ρ1 = Asl/(bwd) ≤ 0.02

d = 515mm, Ast pro = 3695.99 mm2


200
K = 1+ 515
= 1.623

ρ1 = 3695.99/(1000x515) = 0.007177
σcp =0 Since there is no axial force acting on the member

 To calculate Neutral axis:
We have,
Modulus of Elasticity of Steel (Es) = 200000 N/mm2
Modulus of Elasticity of Concrete (Ec) = 25000 N/mm2
As per Cl. 6.4.2.5, pg. 43, IRC: 112-2011
Creep Co-efficient (Փ) for 28 days = 1.60
Modular ratio (m) = Es / Ec eff

= 25000
1+1.60

= 20.80
Hence,
b×xu ×(xu /2)=m×Ast ×(d-xu )
1000×xu ×(xu /2)=20.8×2855.99×(515-xu )
Solving for xu we get,
xu =194.99 mm
 To calculate cracked Moment of Inertia

Icr = +(A×h2 ) +[m×Ast ×(d-xu )2 ]

1000×194.993
Icr = +(1000×194.99×(194.99/2)2 ) + [20.8×2855.99×(515-194.99)2 ]

As per Cl. 214.1, pg. 41, IRC: 6-2014, the Active Earth Pressure (AEP) is located at an
elevation of 0.42 of the height of the wall above the base.
As per Cl. 214.2, pg. 41, IRC 6-2014, the section 2-2 is at a distance greater than 3m from
the box culvert. Hence, the effect of LLS will not act upon the section and is ignored.

Design and Detailing of Box Culvert

9.0. CONCLUSIONS

 Internship helped a lot to know the industry, their requirement and encouraged us as a
professional. Communication and interactions with industry personnel narrowed the gap
between academics and industry.
 The basic concepts learnt in mechanics, Fluid Mechanics, Hydraulics and RCC stand the
same and are used correspondingly in respective stage of the design.
 As an intern, we learned a lot about the industry and the work process. Though we were
interns, we followed professional ethics.
 Problems and designs done in classes are of assumptions or hypothetical type. But, in our
internship the project assigned to us and designed for was in existence rather than
imagination.
