Abstract:

Culverts, conduits that facilitate passage of water beneath roadways and other structures, represent important components of infrastructure systems, helping to drain, direct or divert surface water and prevent the disruption of roadways. Their efficient inspection and maintenance is thus critical to safe operation of Indiana’s transportation infrastructure. Although approximately 25% of culverts associated with INDOT managed roadways are inspected each year, inspectors face many challenges determining the actual condition of culverts, which can vary substantially in material type, form, length, depth of cover, accessibility, and age. This study was therefore performed to understand and synthesize technical culvert inspection alternatives with a focus on identifying and prioritizing readily available solutions.
