Introduction
Worked examples of some of the more commonly
used design calculations are given in this chapter.
It has been considered more appropriate to give
other worked examples immediately following
the description of design principles in other
chapters. For example, substantial calculations are
shown in the Appendix to the Underground
Drainage Systems Chapter.

Preliminary
The performance of existing culverts in similar
natural surface conditions should first be assessed.
Normally this would be an assessment of scouring
caused by existing culverts in the immediate
locality of the new design and the design velocity
for those culverts.
If records of the original design velocity are not
found, assume that the existing culverts were
designed for 1.8 - 2.4 m/s flowing full, which used
to be the standard practice.
At all times the design velocity mentioned in this
example, is located at the outlet of the culvert.
Step 1
Adopt a design velocity for the new culvert.
In this example, afflux upstream is not a problem
and culverts are expensive so that fewer culverts
designed for a higher than average velocity need
to be considered.
Because of divergence of flow leaving a culvert
barrel, at the end of standard culvert protection,
the actual velocity will be about half the design
velocity for most existing culverts. The number of
cells in a culvert will give a variation to this
velocity.
Therefore, if a design velocity of 4.0 m/s is used
instead of say the 2.4 m/s for existing culverts
with satisfactory performance in similar natural
surface conditions at the outlet, the allowable

Step 3
Find the width BE at the end of the protection
where the velocity will not cause erosion.
Assume that the depth (d) of the water remains
constant as it flows downstream from the culvert
barrel, increasing its width at a uniform rate.
Then, as
Discharge = area x velocity
= width x depth x velocity
and is constant, then
WidthBE x d x VBE = WidthAF x d x VAF

Step 1
Locate the basin where the flow downstream of
the basin is sub-critical or where a simple transition as in Example 7.6 will lead to non scouring
(usually sub-critical) flow. i.e. locate the basin at
or near the end of the 6% slope. (Sub-critical flow
occurs when the Froude No. is < 1).
Step 2
Assume an initial basin shape for testing. Assume
a length, L = 8.0 m (about half the length of the
horizontal basin required from example A.
Assume a drop of 1.5 m at the front of the basin
(equal to a drop of 3y0 to the floor of the basin).

Acceptable Design:
The design will be acceptable when the water
surface level at the end of the basin (top of y2) is
below the tailwater level at this point. The
tailwater is required to be higher to induce the
hydraulic jump.

the hydraulic jump will not form.

Step 4
Step 5
Check for culvert requirements when the flood
is at the point of overtopping the road (Case 2).
Preliminary considerations at the start of this
example discussed batter protection, the need to
build up the tailwater and a culvert velocity of
2.30 - 2.45 m/s from a head of 450 mm.
These considerations apply to this example and
the velocity is acceptable. The discharge of
70m/s required through the culverts corresponds
to a tailwater Ht 322.13 m (0.45 m below the
crown of the road).
Step 6
L = length of floodway = 94 m
D = 1.60 m.
H = 0.30 m
Therefore
QR = 1.674 x 94 x 0.31.5
QR = 25.9 m/s
Discharge through culverts,
QC = Qtot - QR = 130.4 - 25.9
QC = 104.5 m/s
Therefore, culverts are required to take a discharge of 104.5 m/s operating under a head of
0.30 m and outlet control for this design condition
(say Case 1).

If required, calculate the afflux in larger floods
