This design uses less masonry than (a) or (b). 192. Example of arch culvert design. In Plate IV is shownthe design for an 8-foot arch culvert according to the standardof the Norfolk and Western R. R. Note that the plan uses theflaring wing walls (Fig. 102, h) on the up-stream side (thusprotecting the abutments from scour) and straight wing walla(similar to Fig. 102, c) on the down-stream end. This econo-mizes masonr}-^ and also simplifies the constructive work. Notealso the simplicity of the junction of the wing walls with thebarrel of the arch, there being no re-entrant angles below thespringing line of the arch. The design here shown is but oneof a set of designs for arches varying in span from 6 to 30. MINOR OPENINGS. 193. Cattle-guards, (a) Pit guards.
