 Appendix C.4: Drainage Structural Drawings i

PREFACE

Part C of the Liberia Manual for Low Volume Roads addresses drainage-related aspects of the design of LVRs. These include the calculation of flows in watercourses, discharge rates, the location and design of appropriate drainage structures,
associated road side stabilization measures, and provision for the anticipated effects of climate change. Tailored specifically for conditions in Liberia, it includes worked examples to help the reader understand the detailed application of the
methods and practices described.
This Appendix to the Manual includes Standard Drawings for typical drainage structures.

Manual Updates
All suggestions to improve the manual or the Standard Drawings should be made in writing to the Ministry of Public Works, which is responsible for issuing periodic updated versions of the Manual.

DRAINAGE STRUCTURAL DRAWINGS

Appendix to Part C of the Manual for Low Volume Roads presents general arrangement drawings and specifications for typical drainage structures. The standard designs vary depending on the size of structures required to accommodate the
design discharge. The design details may need to be adpated to suit the site conditions.

Details are provided for the following standard structures:
