Abstract

A concrete box culvert has been widely used as a typical structure in case of crossing the railroad and highway. Due to the simplicity of it's own shape, in company with the development of computers many studies on the computer-aided automatic design have been continuously carried out. In this paper, an automated design algorithm has been proposed by the analysis of the existed design data of box culverts. From a viewpoint of the users, a data base system has been constructed to carry out the total design process completely through the minimum input data and by means of direct input method on the monitor screen. And an automatic design program for railroad box culverts, in which one-stop process from the structural calculation to the quantity estimation is possible, has been developed.
