Standard Specification for Manufacture of Precast Reinforced Concrete Three-Sided Structures for Culverts and Storm Drains

ABSTRACT
This specification covers single-cell precast conventionally reinforced concrete three-sided structures intended to be used for the construction of culverts and for the conveyance of storm water. Precast reinforced concrete three-sided structures manufactured shall be designated by span, rise, and design earth cover. The reinforced concrete shall consist of cement, fly ash, ground granulated blast-furnace slag, aggregates, admixtures and blends, steel reinforcements, and synthetic fibers. The aggregates shall be sized, graded, proportioned, and mixed with such proportions of cementitious materials and water as will produce a homogeneous concrete mixture. The concrete shall be subjected to either steam curing, water curing, or membrane curing. Compression tests for determining concrete compressive strength may be made on either standard rodded concrete cylinders or concrete cylinders compacted and cured in like manner as the structure compacted and cured in like manner as the three-sided section, or on cores drilled from the three-sided section.
SCOPE
1.1 This specification covers single-cell precast conventionally reinforced concrete three-sided structures intended to be used for the construction of culverts and for the conveyance of storm water.
1.2 A complete metric companion to Specification C 1504 has been developed—C 1504M; therefore, no metric equivalents are presented in this specification.
Note 1—This specification is primarily a manufacturing and purchasing specification. The successful performance of this product depends upon the proper selection of the geometric section, bedding, backfill, and care that the installation conforms to the construction specifications. The purchaser of the precast reinforced concrete three-sided structure specified herein is cautioned that he must properly correlate the loading conditions and the field requirements with the geometric section specified and provide for inspection at the construction site.
