I am thinking of adding a culvert pipe under the end of my driveway for drainage. My gravel driveway enters a paved through road on a slope. Currently storm water flows over the driveway in a v-groove in the gravel driveway. During very heavy storms some of the gravel erodes creating a mess on paved road.
At the local contractor supply store there is both steel culvert pipe and plastic culvert pipe.
I was considering the 8" smooth lined plastic culvert pipe. What are the advantages of the steel verses the plastic pipe? According the supply store the 8" plastic pipe should be buried about 12" deep under a driveway. Can the 8" steel culvert material be buried at less depth?
