Standard designs for precast concrete box culverts are available with spans varying from 6 to 16 feet and rises varying from 4 to 14 feet. Standard precast concrete box culverts are typically fabricated in 6 foot sections; however larger boxes are fabricated in 4 foot sections to reduce section weight.
