A detailed study was made of the effects of compaction on the long-span aluminum culvert
structure in Tice Valley, California. Finite-element analyses were performed to simulate field
behavior. Measurements showed that the deflections due to compaction were very
significant. The analysis procedure appeared to model the effects of compaction reasonably
accurately.(Author)
