description The invention relates to a modular system for assembling a hollow structure. The system comprises multiple segments that are assembled in vertical aligned segments, which in turn can be axially aligned with similar segments to form elongate structures such as culverts and water-retention systems. The vertically aligned segments are composed of first and second segments each having a U-shaped cross sectional configuration defined by opposing ends with an elongate axis between said ends. The segments each comprise opposing sidewalls and a deck spanning said sidewalls having opposing sides and opposing ends which are assembled in inverted, vertically aligned relation to each other to form a hollow structure. They engage each other when assembled with mutually engaging structures that prevent lateral and vertical slippage between the segments. The segments may include half-columns that meet along the plane of engagement to form full-height load bearing columns in the assembled structure.
