Corrugated culvert pipe main cross-section form and advantages

Corrugated culvert pipe main cross-section form and applicable conditions

(1)Circular: conventional cross-section shape, used well in all kinds of functional conditions, especially when the burial depth is large.
(2)Vertical ellipse: culvert, rainwater pipe, sewer, channel, buried in a greater depth when the use of better.
(3)Pear-shaped: can be used as sidewalks, motor vehicle lanes, bicycle lanes.
(4)Pipe arch: can be used as large culverts, passages, long-distance water conveyance culverts, detached overpasses, large stormwater culverts, etc.
(5)Transverse ellipse: to ensure that the amount of water over the same time, reduce the elevation of the roadbed, when the top of the pipe overburden thickness is low is a better choice.
(6)Semi-circular arch: the more commonly used structural form in the open cross-section, with a larger cross-section of over-water, beautiful form, and environmentally friendly cross-section without damaging the natural riverbed.
(7)Low arc arch: culvert, small bridge, sewer, smaller headroom, larger cross-section over water, no damage to the natural riverbed environmentally friendly section.
(8)High arc arch: culverts, small bridges, sewers, larger headroom, often used as access roads and public-railway interchanges.
(9)Horseshoe arch: tunnel initial support, reinforcement, railroad access or other requirements for greater headroom.
(10) Box culvert: smaller headroom, larger span, is a better alternative to small span bridges.

The advantages of steel corrugated pipe culvert include:
Strong applicability: Galvanized Corrugated Steel Pipes is applicable to a wide range of foundation conditions, and highway corrugated steel pipe (plate) culverts can be set up at general culverts.

The following conditions are suitable to give priority to steel corrugated pipe culvert:
① low bearing capacity, there will be greater settlement and deformation of the foundation;
② terrain conditions in complex areas;
③ tight schedule, can not meet the reinforced concrete culvert or masonry culvert construction requirements, more applicable.
Steel corrugated pipe culvert has wider applicability to the foundation. Steel corrugated pipe culvert is a flexible structure, steel tensile strength, its unique corrugated structure so that its compressive strength than the same diameter of reinforced concrete pipe, can effectively avoid the destruction of the upper structure due to uneven settlement, but also can effectively reduce the pipe culvert itself due to uneven settlement cracking problems.
Fast construction speed, saving time: the main engineering volume of steel corrugated pipe culvert is the assembly of pipe sections, reducing a large number of concrete pouring, maintenance and other time.
Cost saving: the actual cost of steel corrugated pipe culvert is lower than that of bridges and culverts of similar span, and the construction period is short, mainly for assembling construction. Steel corrugated pipe culvert in the manufacturing process using standardized design, production, design simplicity, short production cycle, production is not affected by the environment, centralized factory production, and is conducive to reducing costs. Ehong specializes in supplying various types of corrugated drainage culverts to meet a variety of engineering needs!
