Abstract:This Manual presents an overview, user instructions and technical backup for the computer program BOXCAR. BOXCAR is a program for the structural analysis and design of reinforced concrete box sections. It has been written to run on IBM or IBM compatible microcomputers. The input routines are user friendly; only minimal experience with computers is required prior to use. Most parameters can be controlled by the user. Knowledge of structural design codes for culverts is required. BOXCAR completes structural analysis for loads due to box weight, soil weight, internal gravity fluid weight, live loads and user specified surcharge loads. Forces resulting from each load condition may be printed out separately. Structural design is in accordance with AASHTO. Design criteria include ultimate flexure, diagonal tension, service load crack control, and service load fatigue. The quantity of output is controlled by the user. All output is formatted for 8.5 by 11 inch paper. User instructions include descriptions of all input variables and design examples. The programmer manual includes listings of all technical subroutines.
