With the rapid development of transportation construction, the demand for efficient, environmentally friendly, and durable building materials is increasing. Metal culverts, as a new type of transportation facility, have shown wide application prospects in the construction of highways, railways, bridges, and other areas due to their unique advantages. This article will provide a detailed introduction to the characteristics, advantages, and important position of metal culverts in modern transportation construction.

The construction cost of metal culverts is relatively low, especially in areas lacking sand and gravel materials or with low foundation bearing capacity, and their advantages are more significant. Metal culverts are not only widely used in the construction of transportation infrastructure such as highways and railways, but also in the reinforcement, emergency rescue, and communication engineering of bridges. Metal culverts are constructed using assembly methods, which can significantly shorten the construction period compared to traditional reinforced concrete culverts.
