Abstract
This paper deals with the characteristics of deformation of the underground corrugated steel plate culverts constructed in the areas where the minimum depth of within 1.5 m soil cover is not secured in the bottom of highways. The underground corrugated steel plate culverts at shallow depth are often designed and constructed with the consideration of the minimum depth of soil cover according to the design standards, which was made in order to minimize any deformation. Additionally, if under unfavorable conditions, slabs are set up for stress relaxation to disperse and minimize the weight of loads transferred to the corrugated steel plate culverts. Nevertheless, if the underground corrugated steel plate culverts are built in areas where the minimum depth of soil cover inevitably cannot be secured, there may occur some deformation. In this paper, a research was carried out to identify the characteristics of deformation in areas where the minimum depth of soil cover is not secured. The result shows that there existed the deterioration of pavement and in its smoothness around the corners of slabs for stress relaxation. To this end, this paper studied the structural stability of the underground corrugated steel plate culverts established in the areas with no minimum depth of soil cover secured, with the consideration of causes and solutions of pavement deterioration.
