Construction of culverts by pushing the finished links into the embankment

Abstract

The object of research in this article is culverts, namely the technology of their construction. This topic is relevant in connection with the development of road construction, which in turn requires high-quality drainage, carried out in most cases by culverts.
 The purpose of the study is to select and justify the most rational method of construction of culverts on roads and Railways. The article analyzes the advantages and disadvantages of the method of pushing finished links into the embankment. Various variants of pipes used in this method are considered, and the most suitable material and shape are selected. The features of operation of newly constructed culverts in the first year of their service are highlighted.
 The result of the study is a proven advantage of the method of pushing finished links into the embankment, namely, using round-shaped pipes made of the most suitable material for performing these works-corrugated iron.
