Abstract

Culvert is hydraulic structure that is used to convey and discharge water as part of drainage system. Many roads are damaged by floods consequent upon unavailability or inefficient drainage system which claim many lives and properties. In designing culvert, the analysis and design especially multiple cell-boxes is painstaking. Due to the cumbersome analysis of culvert, several structural engineering softwares are developed and used for the analysis and design of culverts such as spreadsheet. However, there is no RCC spread sheet written and developed that can be used for analysis and design of multi box culvert which will make design simplier and faster on the field and in the design office. The comparative analysis and design of multi box culvert using Staadpro and Spreadsheet is undertaken in this research. The result produced by staadpro is not as reliable as that of spreadsheet in term of analysis. In conclusion, it is reliable to develop program as an engineer such as spreadsheet, MATLAB, C++, ABAQUS, ARDENAL e.t.c to solve engineering problem because most of the sofwares come with definite program and assumption which are sometimes not clear to engineer.
