Abstract:
A double line of precast concrete, three-sided, arch culvert-bridge units that were used to enclose Brush Creek between two Kansas City, Missouri, suburbs is described. Two principal streets intersected on top of the structure. The contractor was allowed only 14 days to complete construction of the structure and reopen the intersection. The Brush Creek Improvements project in Prairie Village, Kansas, required 100 pieces of double-cell CON/SPAN precast culvert units with 6.10 m (20 ft) of span and 2.13 m (7 ft) of rise and 78 pieces of precast concrete footings. The design also featured an S-curve alignment.
