Abstract:

A detailed study was made of the effects of compaction on the long-span aluminum culvert structure in Tice Valley, California. Finite-element analyses were performed to simulate field behavior. Measurements showed that the deflections due to compaction were very significant. The analysis procedure appeared to model the effects of compaction reasonably accurately. (Author)
