HYDRAULIC ANALYSIS OF PIPE-ARCH AND ELLIPTICAL SHAPE CULVERTS USING PROGRAMABLE-CALCULATORS

This computer program was developed for the TI-59 programable calculator to provide hydraulic design engineers with a tool to make "desk top" culvert review or design for corrugated metal pipe-arch (CMPA), corrugated metal pipe-elliptical (CMPE), concrete pipe-arch and concrete pipe-elliptical (oval) shape pipes. The CM pipe-arch culvert sizes include 18 inch or less, 31 inch and 47 inch corner radius configuration for both riveted and structural plate culverts and 31.8 inch corner radius for the aluminum structural plate culverts. The concrete pipe-arch culverts include variable corner radii up to 26.875 inches. The long span structures have been accounted for with the 47 inch corner radius CMPA culvert sizes and the CMPE culverts. This program is not limited to the review and design of culvert sizes tabulated in the manual, other available sizes can be analyzed.
