Description
Session Description
Galvanized corrugated metal and concrete underground culverts are common infrastructure in North American highways and stormwater management. Many have been in place for decades and experienced substantial deterioration and reduced structural integrity. Excavation and replacement can be cost prohibitive. A shotcrete lining is a cost-effective and efficient method to strengthen and significantly extend their useful life.
