átereszek

Átereszek, also known as culverts, are structures that allow water to flow under a road, railway, canal, or pathway. They are typically used to maintain drainage and prevent flooding. Átereszek can be constructed from various materials, including concrete, metal, plastic, or even stone. The design and size of an átereszek depend on the volume of water it needs to carry and the type of obstruction it is passing under.

Common types of átereszek include pipe átereszek, which are cylindrical conduits, and box átereszek, which have a rectangular cross-section. Arch átereszek are another type, often used where a larger span is required. The proper functioning of an átereszek is crucial for infrastructure integrity, as blockages or structural failures can lead to significant damage and disruption. Regular maintenance, such as clearing debris, is essential to ensure átereszek remain clear and effective. In some contexts, átereszek may also be referred to as drains or underpasses, depending on their specific application and local terminology.
