other side of the dike. The circular concrete culvert has a free outfall. The culvert is 60 feet long on a 2.00 % slope and is 30 inches in diameter. The culvert entrance will project from the embankment. Use an orifice coefficient (Co) of 0.62 for a sharp-edged entrance. Create a rating table that correlates the culvert discharge to the depth of the headwater, from 3 feet to 6 feet in 0.25 feet increments. The Engineering Department would like to know the culvert discharge rate based on the depth of the headwater so that they can conduct long-term planning (development, infrastructure improvements, open space, etc.) on the upstream and downstream sides of the dike.

A concrete circular culvert (n=0.012) with a diameter of 2m is laid @ a slope of 0.3%. During non-peak flow, the depth of water flowing on the culvert is 25% of the diameter of the culvert. Determine the velocity & flow rate if a. the culvert is flowing full b. non-peak flow
3. A culvert with a headwall is to be laid through a road embankment at the natural stream slope of 0.004. The inlet invert is set at an elevation of 20.5 m and the maximum allowable headwater elevation is 23.0 m. The length of the culvert is100 m and the tailwater elevation is 22.0 m. Check to see whether a 1500 mm (width) by 1200 mm (depth) twin box culvert is sufficient to allow a design discharge of 6.0 m3/s to pass through the culvert. If so, sketch the most likely flow conditions at the inlet and outlet of the culvert.
