Projecting Ends of Culvert Design
A projecting end is a treatment where the culvert is allowed to protrude out of the embankment (see Figure 3-4). […]
Culvert End Treatments
The type of end treatment used on a culvert depends on many interrelated and sometimes conflicting considerations. The PEO must
