- B. The highest point of a storm drain manhole
- C. The interior wall of a retention pond
- D. The upstream channel lining of a ditch
Answer: A. The upstream end of a culvert protected by a concrete or masonry wall
A headwall is a concrete or masonry structure constructed at the inlet or outlet end of a culvert to retain the embankment, guide flow, and prevent erosion.
What condition exists when a culvert operates with the outlet submerged but the pipe is not flowing full under pressure throughout its length?

- B. Outlet control with full-pipe pressure flow
- C. Outlet control with partly full (open-channel) pipe flow
- D. Inlet control with pressure flow at the inlet
Answer: C. Outlet control with partly full (open-channel) pipe flow
When tailwater submerges the outlet but the pipe does not run under full pressure, the culvert operates under outlet control with open-channel (partly full) flow.
An inspector observes that the contractor is placing fill on a slope steeper than 3:1 without benching. What is the primary concern?

- B. The new fill may slide along the interface with the existing slope
- C. The fill material will segregate on the steep face
- D. Compaction equipment cannot safely operate at that angle
