# Questions CO PO RB
TL
1. Design a reinforced concrete box culvert having a clear vent way CO2 L2
3mx3m. the super imposed dead load on the culvert is 12.8kn/m2. The
live is as per IRC tracked vehicle class AA. The density of soil at site is
18kn/m2, angle of repose is 30. Use m20 and fe145 (design up to live
load only)

2. Design a suitable RCC pipe culvert to suit the following data: CO2 L1
Discharge through the pipe culvert = 1.57m3/s
Velocity of flow through pipe = 2m/s
Width of road = 7.5m
Top width of embankment 1.5:1
Bed level of stream = 100
Top of embankment = 103
Loading IRC class AA with a maximum wheel load of 62.5kn

3. With a neat sketch explain parts of a typical bridge CO2 L2

4. List the different types of abutments with a neat sketch CO3 L2

5. a) Write a short note on stability of abutments CO3 L2

b) what are the forces acting on piers
