Sets out minimum requirements for the design, manufacture and installation of precast reinforced concrete rectangular box culverts for conveying water not under pressure, and for carrying roadway and railway loadings specified by the AS5100 series.

This Standard sets out minimum requirements for the design, manufacture and installation of precast reinforced concrete rectangular box culverts for conveying water not under pressure, and for carrying roadway and railway loadings specified by the AS 5100 series.This Standard is applicable to the design of culverts in dry or intermittently wet conditions.NOTES: 1 For culverts to be designed for embankments that occasionally impound water, specialist design advice should be sought regarding the overall embankment stability.2 Culvert units, lids and base slabs manufactured in accordance with this Standard can be expected to achieve a design life of 100 years.3 Design requirements are based on the methods of limit state design, using theoretical strength and serviceability calculations. Alternatively, design by prototype testing in accordance with the general principles and requirements of the AS 5100 series or AS 3600 is acceptable.4 The testing procedure and test loads for prototype testing should demonstrate that the units tested satisfy the design loads and manufacturing requirements of this Standard.
