Descriptions

Pipe culverts are essential components of the infrastructure inventory of highway departments throughout the world. They conduct water through embankments and under roadways and bridges. They direct surface water away from driving surfaces and prevent damage due to erosion and overtopping. They can degrade over time and they can be damaged during installation. They are typically required to be inspected immediately and periodically throughout the remainder of their service lives.
