Monolithic Four Sided Precast Concrete Box Culvert
Four-sided precast concrete box culverts are typically referred to as box culverts. Uses of the four-sided box culvert include detention; tunnels (for conveyors, utilities, access tunnels, escape tunnels); short-span bridges (over highways, waterways, railways, golf courses); and storm drains to convey stormwater, sewage, or industrial waste. The precast concrete box culvert has been in use for over 40 years. There are three types of four-sided precast box culverts: monolithically poured, two piece mid-seam, and crown and base. Four-sided monolithically poured precast box culverts are poured all as one piece at the precast concrete plant and shipped directly to the job site for immediate installation.
