Precast concrete products - Box culverts
This European Standard deals with both large (structural) and small (non-structural or light structural) box culverts of rectangular cross-section formed monolithically and designed as continuous elements with a joint detail shaped to allow the possible incorporation of sealing materials. Box culverts can be used for creation of voids below ground for conveyance and storage of materials. e.g. conveyance and storage of wastewater, cable tunnels and subways
For the purposes of this European Standard, box culverts having internal cross-sectional dimensions (W and H in Figure 1) less than or equal to 1 250 mm are considered as small (non-structural or light structural). All other units are defined as large. The elements are generally manufactured in factories using either normal weight or lightweight concrete and usually require reinforcing steel. This standard does not include units manufactured from autoclaved aerated concrete, nor prefabricated reinforced box culverts of lightweight concrete with open structure.
Each unit is structurally complete. They are used in combination to form a total structure of appropriate length (including joints) and capacity.
Betonfertigteile - Hohlkastenelemente
Diese Europäische Norm behandelt sowohl große (tragende) als auch kleine (nicht tragende oder eine
geringe Tragfähigkeit aufweisende) Hohlkastenelemente mit rechteckigem Querschnitt, die monolithisch
hergestellt werden und als aneinander gereihte Elemente mit einer Fugenausbildung entworfen sind, wobei
die Fuge so geformt ist, dass Dichtstoffe eingebracht werden können. Hohlkastenelemente können dazu
verwendet werden, unterirdische Hohlräume zu schaffen, die für den Transport oder die Lagerung von
Materialien, z. B. für den Transport und Lagerung von Abwasser, als Kabelkanäle oder als Unterführungen,
genutzt werden.
Für die Anwendung dieser Norm sollten Hohlkastenelemente mit Innenquerschnittsmaßen (W und H in Bild 1)
≤ 1 250 mm als klein (nicht tragend oder eine geringe Tragfähigkeit aufweisend) angesehen werden. Sämtliche
anderen Elemente sollten als groß definiert werden. Im Allgemeinen werden die Elemente in Werken aus
Normal- oder Leichtbeton hergestellt und erfordern meist eine Betonstahlbewehrung. Die vorliegende Norm
behandelt weder Elemente, die aus Porenbeton hergestellt werden, noch vorgefertigte Hohlkastenelemente
aus Leichtbeton mit offenem Gefüge.
Alle Elemente sind in statisch-konstruktiver Hinsicht vollständig ausgebildet. Sie werden aneinander gereiht
eingesetzt, sodass sich eine Gesamtkonstruktion passender Länge (einschließlich Fugen) und Tragfähigkeit
ergibt.
Produits préfabriqués en béton - Cadres enterrés
La présente norme traite à la fois des cadres enterrés grands (structurels) et petits (non structurels ou peu structurels) de section transversale rectangulaire, monolithiques et conçus comme des éléments continus avec un détail de joint formé pour permettre l’incorporation éventuelle de matériaux d’étanchéité. Les cadres enterrés peuvent être utilisés pour créer des vides au-dessous du niveau du sol à des fins de transport et de stockage, par exemple pour le transport et le stockage des eaux résiduaires, les galeries techniques et les passages souterrains.
#Pour les besoins de la présente Norme européenne, les cadres enterrés ayant des dimensions internes de section transversale (W et H sur la Figure 1) inférieures ou égales à 1 250 mm sont considérés comme petits (non structurels ou peu structurels). Tous les autres éléments sont qualifiés de grands.$ Les éléments sont généralement fabriqués en usine avec du béton de granulats normaux ou légers et nécessitent généralement de l’acier de béton armé passif. La présente norme n’inclut pas les éléments fabriqués à partir de béton cellulaire autoclavé, ni les cadres enterrés en béton armé réalisés en béton léger à structure ouverte.
Tous les éléments sont structurellement fermés. Ils sont combinés pour former une structure complète de longueur (avec les joints) et de capacité appropriées.
Montažni betonski izdelki - Škatlasti nosilci
Ta evropski standard obravnava velike (konstrukcijske) in majhne (nekonstrukcijske ali lahke konstrukcijske) monolitne škatlaste nosilce s pravokotnim prerezom, zasnovane kot neprekinjene elemente s spojem, ki omogoča morebitna vključitev tesnilnih materialov. Škatlasti nosilci se lahko uporabljajo pri konstrukciji podzemnih prostorov za prenos in skladiščenje materialov, npr. za prenos in skladiščenje odpadne vode, kabelske kanale in podvoze.
Za namene tega evropskega standarda se škatlasti nosilci, ki imajo notranje mere v prerezu (W in H na sliki 1) manjše kot ali enake 1 250 mm, obravnavajo kot majhni (nekonstrukcijski ali lahki konstrukcijski) nosilci. Vse druge enote so opredeljene kot velike. Elementi so ponavadi izdelani v tovarnah iz normalno težkega ali lahkega betona in običajno je treba uporabiti armaturno jeklo. Ta standard ne vključuje enot iz avtoklaviranega celičnega betona in predizdelanih armiranih škatlastih nosilcev iz lahkega betona z odprto konstrukcijo.
Vsaka enota je konstrukcijsko zaključena. Skupaj oblikujejo celotno konstrukcijo ustrezne dolžine (vključno s spoji) in zmogljivosti.

EN 14844:2006+A2:2011 (E) 6 Introduction The Construction Products Directive sets out Essential Requirements to be considered, depending upon the use made of the product. For box culverts it was mandated that the requirements for mechanical resistance and stability should be considered. For these requirements this standard will mainly refer to clauses of EN 1992-1-1, Eurocode 2: Design of concrete structures Part 1-1: General rules and rules for buildings. The mandate also requires consideration of durability, from the point of view of freeze thaw action and corrosion, which is also addressed by the Eurocodes referred to above. #deleted text$ SIST EN 14844:2006+A2:2012
EN 14844:2006+A2:2011 (E) 7 1 Scope This European Standard deals with both large (structural) and small (non-structural or light structural) box culverts of rectangular cross-section formed monolithically and designed as continuous elements with a joint detail shaped to allow the possible incorporation of sealing materials. Box culverts can be used for creation of voids below ground for conveyance and storage of materials. e.g. conveyance and storage of wastewater, cable tunnels and subways #For the purposes of this European Standard, box culverts having internal cross-sectional dimensions (W and H in Figure 1) less than or equal to 1 250 mm are considered as small (non-structural or light structural). All other units are defined as large.$ The elements are generally manufactured in factories using either normal weight or lightweight concrete and usually require reinforcing steel. This standard does not include units manufactured from autoclaved aerated concrete, nor prefabricated reinforced box culverts of lightweight concrete with open structure. Each unit is structurally complete. They are used in combination to form a total structure of appropriate length (including joints) and capacity. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this European Standard.

Additional information for the design of box culverts A.1 Characteristic horizontal load Maximum and minimum horizontal loads from fill pressure should be assessed by the principles of soil mechanics. It should take into account the type of fill, the method of installation of the culvert, the backfilling and possible presence of groundwater. A.2 Reinforcement of inner wall faces Even when analysis indicates that there is no tension in a face, minimum reinforcement being not less than the minimum reinforcement of EN 1992-1-2 should be provided. It should be able to resist an ultimate bending moment of 0,8 3eH kNm/m (where He is the effective span of the wall in metres) but should be not less than the minimum reinforcement required by EN 1992-1-2. This does not apply, however, to the corner splays of culverts or to the inner wall faces
