The most critical culvert  behavior was considered by studying culverts  subjected to zero depth of the fill and placed on a  rigid bedding material. Full-scale experimental  tests, with wheel load placed at the most critical  shear location, were conducted on 24 typical precast  concrete box culverts designated as per ASTM C 1433- 05. The test results further indicated that flexure  governed the behavior up to and beyond AASHTO 2005  factored load.Three-dimensional nonlinear finite  element models (FEM) of the test specimens were  developed and verified with the experimental  results. The shear distribution width for each box  was calculated. This was used to obtain the critical  factored shear force for all the boxes which were  then compared with the American Concrete Institute  shear capacity equations. It was shown that the  shear capacity exceeded the facored critical shear  force for all the ASTM C1433-05 boxes. This study  shows that the AASHTO 2005 provision with regard to  the shear transfer device across the joint is  unsupported.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783838306285\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIn SI and Customary Units\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9783838306285","offer_id":39497046622301,"sku":"9783838306285","price":79.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/edda1af5-1598-40f1-9e30-0e0b984e1d40.jpg?v=1768976218","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/en\/products\/shear-behavior-of-reinforced-concrete-box-culverts-von-anil-garg","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
