SPR-3857: Assessment of Pipe Fill Heights

INDOT requires calculations to determine the minimum and maximum cover height of pipes. The following types will be considered: corrugated HDPE, steel, galvanized and spiral-bound pipes. The scope of the work consists of the review of earlier analyses and the completion of new calculations. Deliverables will be in the form of tables that provide the maximum and minimum fill cover for the different types of pipes.
