Culvert Material Selection Spreadsheet: We have created an Excel spreadsheet to assist in the durability and structural design of metal and concrete culverts. This is an expansion of the culvert durability Excel sheet. The design is per the Location and Design, Volume 2 Manual. Follow the following link for more information: Downloads
Consultant Hydraulic Email List: In an effort to improve communication between the Department and the Consultants, we have created a hydraulic engineering listserv. Only Design Consultants, Locals, and Department personnel are allowed to subscribe to the list. This list should be used to discuss hydraulic related technical information only. Advertisements, sales, or spam will not be permitted on the list.
SUBSCRIBING: To subscribe to the listserv, send the following in the body (not the subject line) of an email message to Majordomo@listserv.dot.state.oh.us:

Culvert Management: This page offers the newly developed ODOT Culvert Management Manual. The manual provides guidance for the Inventory and Inspection of culverts in Ohio. Follow the link to the culvert management site: Culvert Management
The Office of Hydraulic Engineering has been given the responsibility of the oversight of all aspects of highway drainage. This includes all bridges, prefabricated cross-drains, storm sewers, open water carriers (ditches), pavement drainage systems, sanitary sewers, water works, erosion & sediment control items, and sub-surface pavement drainage (underdrains).
In addition, the office develops and maintains the Location & Design Manual, Volume 2 - Drainage Design. This manual is the primary source of information for personnel involved in drainage design for Ohio DOT. It is intended to provide uniform procedures for implementing drainage design decisions and assure quality and continuity in drainage of highways in Ohio.
The office is active in research activities and members of the section sit on various TRB, NCHRP, AASHTO and ASTM committees. |
