Abstract
This 2-day course includes intensive, focused training on the new CivilStorm application
where you will learn and apply every feature to realistic drainage situations.
With CivilStorm, you will approach drainage design and analysis using an entirely
new and cutting edge modeling paradigm – unsteady flow routing through interdependent
systems of inlets, storm sewers, channels, culverts, and ponds. With
CivilStorm, you will unify all of your drainage components into a single model that
runs within the Windows or CAD environment.
You will apply CivilStorm to calculate runoff hydrographs, create hydraulic grade
lines through pipes, channels, culverts, and ponds, and then animate those profiles
over time.You will also compare results for various events and design alternatives,
color code system elements over time, and locate potential flooding. During this
course, you will import aerial photography, establish background layers, setup a
pre-developed model, and then design a proposed drainage system.
Benefits
Attendees will learn how to design and simulate complex stormwater systems using
a new paradigm for modeling complex systems of storm sewers, inlets, channels,
culverts and ponds within a single dynamic stormwater model. This new paradigm
will enable engineers to model the dynamic interaction between all components of
a stormwater system, and design more effectively.
Prerequisites
Basic knowledge of stormwater hydrology and hydraulics or PondPack training course.
Products Covered
CivilStorm
Who Should Attend
Design engineers, project managers, and municipal engineers of all experience levels
who deal with stormwater modeling issues will benefit from these hands-on workshops.
This stormwater course applies to engineers who analyze, design, or review
plans for stormwater systems that involve general site drainage, inlets, storm sewers,
channels, culverts, or detention ponds. In particular, this course will help those who
want to model entire complex stormwater systems using a single dynamic model.
