The need for the effective management of transportation assets has never been greater. In an era of an aging infrastructure, ever-increasing traffic demands, and shrinking budgets, transportation agencies are continually being asked to “do more with less” in maintaining the condition of their facilities.

Pavements represent a large part of that transportation infrastructure, and the need for their effective management is just as acute. Pavements that are left to deteriorate without timely preservation or maintenance treatments are likely to require major rehabilitation and reconstruction much sooner, and those are costly and disruptive activities.

This online engineering PDH interactive presentation explains how to preserve land as well as water characteristics by controlling erosion and sediment due to site storm water runoff in a construction site.

EPA recommends that land disturbance is kept minimal during any construction activity. Therefore, an effective storm water management program is essential to reduce the effect of pollutants in any storm water runoff. “Construction Site Storm Water Runoff Control” is classified as one of the most effective Best Management Practices to be used by personnel of small MS4s.

This 3 PDH online interactive presentation is intended primarily to all personnel responsible for the implementation of runoff controls for storm water runoff from construction sites including but not limited to, municipality owners and/or operators, construction contractors and their staff, site developers and investors, and engineers.

This online engineering PDH interactive presentation presents a combination of structural best management practices appropriate to address storm water runoff from new development and redevelopment projects disturbing land characteristics.

EPA recommends that you ensure the appropriate implementation of the structural Best Management Practices, in order to provide new development and potentially redevelopment with more opportunities for water quality protection, by considering some or all of the following: preconstruction review of BMP designs; inspections during construction to verify BMPs are built as designed; post-construction inspection and maintenance of BMPs; and penalty provisions for the noncompliance with design, construction or operation and maintenance.

Structural BMPs include: storage practices such as wet ponds and extended-detention outlet structures; filtration practices such as grassed swales, sand filters and filter strips; and infiltration practices such as infiltration basins and infiltration trenches.

This 3 PDH online interactive presentation is intended primarily to all personnel responsible for the implementation of best management practices for post construction storm water management including but not limited to, municipality owners and/or operators, construction contractors and their staff, site developers and investors, and engineers.

This online engineering PDH interactive presentation provides an overview on the occurrence and movement of groundwater.  Procedures for planning and managing a site characterization and modeling study are then presented. 

In the past 10 years, significant technical progress has been made in the field of computer modeling of groundwater flow. These new modeling technologies have had widespread applications within the field. Similar to many field applications, it is not possible to provide specific instructions and/or specific procedures that are universally applicable to every situation that may be encountered. Therefore, this course emphasizes the use of sound judgement and the development of a good understanding of basic groundwater concepts rather than providing specific guidelines.

This 1 PDH online interactive presentation is applicable to civil and environmental engineers, as well as design and construction personnel involved with the study and analysis of groundwater flow.

This online engineering PDH interactive presentation provides an overview of the technical aspects of field investigative methods and computer modeling that are often employed to quantify the water exchange between the surface and subsurface.

This presentation also discusses the current technology available for carrying out simulations of the interaction between surface water and groundwater that are required for the numerical modeling of groundwater flow.

This online engineering PDH interactive presentation provides an advanced numerical modelling approach to evaluate rock stability at bridge piers and abutments.

Riprap is one of the most common materials used to protect bridge abutment and pier foundations from scour. A key element of the design of riprap countermeasures is rock sizing, which is based on equations generally derived from simplified laboratory experiments.

This 1 PDH online interactive presentation is intended primarily for designers and engineers responsible for protecting bridge foundations.

This online engineering PDH video presentation focuses on the basic nature of flow in open channels and common ways of classifying open channel flow (laminar or turbulent, steady state or unsteady state, uniform or non-uniform, and critical, subcritical or supercritical).  It presents several worked examples to gain practice in the use of the Manning equation for a variety of uniform open channel flow calculations.

 

Flow of water may take place either as open channel flow or pressure flow.  Pressure flow takes place in a closed conduit such as a pipe, and pressure is the primary driving force for the flow.  For open channel flow, on the other hand, the flowing liquid has a free surface that is at atmospheric pressure and the driving force is gravity.  Open channel flow takes place in natural channels like rivers and streams.  It also occurs in manmade channels such as those used to transport wastewater or irrigation water and in circular sewers flowing partially full.

 

This 3 PDH online video presentation is intended primarily for civil, hydraulic, highway, environmental, chemical, mechanical, and industrial engineers, who are interested in learning more about open channel hydraulics.

This online engineering PDH video presentation presents the parameter “specific energy” which will first be used to introduce the concepts of critical, subcritical and supercritical flow.  It also presents various calculations related to critical, subcritical and supercritical flow, including hydraulic jump calculations. It discusses the thirteen possible types of gradually varied non-uniform flow surface profiles.  It illustrates the procedure and equations for step-wise calculation of gradually varied non-uniform surface profiles through the use of examples.

 

Many examples of open channel flow can be approximated as uniform flow allowing the use of the Manning equation for calculations.  Non-uniform flow calculations are needed, however, in some open channel flow situations, in which the flow is clearly non-uniform.  The concepts of supercritical, subcritical and critical flow, along with calculations related to those three flow regimes are needed for non-uniform open channel flow analysis and calculations.

This online engineering PDH video presentation is devoted to the more widely used sharp-crested weir.  It places emphasis on the calculations used to measure for flow rate in various types of sharp-crested weirs. It presents guidelines for the installation, measurement and use of sharp-crested weirs in open channels.

 

A weir is basically an obstruction in an open channel flow path.  Weirs are commonly used for measurement of open channel flow rate.  A weir functions by causing water to rise above the obstruction in order to flow over it.  The height of water above the obstruction correlates with the flow rate, so that measurement of the height of the flowing water above the top of the weir can be used to determine the flow rate through the use of an equation, graph or table.  The top of the weir, which is used as the reference level for the height of water flowing over it, is called the crest of the weir.  Weirs are typically classified as being either sharp-crested or broad-crested.
