357+388 Box Widening - 3

This document provides design calculations for a box culvert including design data, dimension details, material properties, and design parameters. Key details include dimensions of 3 meters width and 1.5 meters height for a single cell box culvert. Design considers a maximum fill height of 0 meters, concrete grade of M35, and rebar grade of Fe500. Base pressure was calculated to be 7.6 t/m2 which is less than the permissible 10 t/m2.
