1 Solution Genral
For the purpose of design , one metre length of the box is considered.
The analysis is done for the following cases.
(I) Live load, dead load and earth prssure acting , with no water pressure from inside.
(II) Live and dead load on top and earth pressure acting from out side, and water pressure acting from inside,
with no live load on sides
(III) Dead load and earth pressure acting from out side and water pressure from in side.

Let the thicness of Horizontal slab 330 mm = 0.33 m

Vertical wall thicness 320 mm = 0.32 m
Effective slab span 3.5 + 0.33 = 3.83 m
Effective Height of wall 3.5 + 0.32 = 3.82 m

2 Case 1 : Dead and live load from out side of while no water pressure from inside.
Self weight og top slab = 0.33 x 1 x 1 x ### = 8250 N/m2
Live load and dead load = 45000 + ### = 57000 N/m2
Total load on top = 65250 N/m2
Weight of side wall = 3.82 x 0.32 x ### = 30560 N/m
Upward soil reaction at base = ( 65250 x 3.83 )+( 2 x ### )=
81208.2 N/m2
3.83
1 - sin 30 1 - 0.5 1
Ka = = = = = 0.33
1 + sin 30 1 + 0.5 3
Latral pressure due to dead load and live load = Pv x Ka
p = ### x 0.333 = 19000 N/m2
Latral pressure due to soil Ka x w x h = 0.333 x ### h = h
Hence total pressure = ### + 6000 h
Latral presure intencity at top = 19000 N/m2
Latral pressure intencity at bottom = ### + 6000 x = 41920 N/m2
w = 65250 N/m2

Fig 1 show the box culvert 19000 19000

frame ABCD, along with the external A E B
loads, Due to symmetry, half of
frame (i.e. AEFD) of box culvert is
considered for moment distribution. h 3.83
Since all the members have uniform 19000 3.82
thickness, and uniform diamentions, 6000 h
the relative stiffness K for AD will
be equal to 1 while the relative D F C
stiffness for AE and DF will be 1/2. 41920 19000 22920

4 Case 3 : Dead load and live load on top water pressure from inside no live load on side.
in this case, it is assume that there is no latral oressure due to live load . As before .
The top slab is subjected to a load of '= 65250 N/m2
and the bottom slab is subjected to a load w = 65250 N/m2
Itensity = 81208 N/m2 4000 4000
Lateral pressure due to dead load = A E B 4000

Hence Provided 8 mm Bars @ 120 mm c/c on each face
Section at supports :-
Maximum B.M.= 71023 N-m. There is direct compression of 69810 N also.
But it effect is not considered because the slab is actually reinforced both at top and bottom .
Since steel is at top st = 190 N/mm2 concrete M 20
k = 0.3238 J = 0.892 R = 1.011

Ast = = 1397 mm2
 Ast = = 1397 mm2

Area available from the bars bentup from the middle section = 2617 / 2 = 1308 mm2

1397 > 1308 Fail , hence additional reinforcement will provided.

Additional reinforcemet required = 88.67 mm2

Spacing of Bars = Ax1000/Ast = 50 x 1000 / 89 = 567 say = 560 mm
Hence Provided 8 mm Bars @ 300 mm c/c throught out the slab, at its bottom.

7 Design of side wall:

The side wall has the following value of B.M. and direct force.
Case B.M. at Center (F) B.M. at ends (D) Direct force (ha)
(i) 7197 71023 155514
(II) 30523 58813 155108
(II) 48748 49646 155108

The section will be design for maximum B.M. = 71023 N -m, and direct force = 155514
71023 x 1000
Eccentricity = = 457 mm
155514
proposed thickness of side wall '= 330 mm e/D 457 / 330 = 1.38 < 1.5
thickness of side wall is OK
Let us reinforce the section with 20 mmbars @ 300 mm c/c provided on both faces, as shown
in fig xxx . With cover of 50 mm and D = 330 mm
