With all the rain we have gotten this fall and winter, I got stuck pretty good this weekend trying to cross a wash-out that cuts across our lease access road. The soil is pretty sandy clay with some small amounts of mixed iron-ore gravel. Ive crossed the last high spot several times this fall with no problem, but this it just turned into soup when the back tires got in it. Decided it was time for a culvert. Was looking on TSC website and the difference between an 18"x10' and a 24"x10' is $70. Just wondering if it would be worth the extra money to go with the big one, or if the amount of flow between the two sizes would be negligible.
The wash is probably big enough to drop either one in there, and for the most part, I think the 18" would suffice. But, I dont want it to come another flood and wash out around the culvert. Anyone have any advice?
FWIW, money and terrain will not allow for any rock or paving materials, so I will have to cover with soils taken from surrounding area.
