Abstract:Louisiana used metal culverts throughout the state for drainage purposes. Culverts made of concrete were also used, but large concrete culverts were more expensive and the foundation had to be able to bear their weight. However, the use of metal culverts created problems associated with corrosion in environments with low ph and resistivity values of soil and water. The research hold the opinion that an expert system could be developed which would provide the state with information such as the economics of each culvert cathodic protection installation.
