COURSE TITLE: Tunnel Operations, Maintenance, Inspection, and Evaluation Manual: Evaluation
COURSE NO: C02-073
COURSE PROVIDER: Gilbert Gedeon, P.E.
Tunnel Operations, Maintenance, Inspection, and Evaluation Manual: Evaluation
Course Highlights

This engineering online PDH course will provide an overview on the evaluation of tunnel systems and the associated components. The components explored in this chapter include the typical personnel involved, supplemental inspection and testing methods, risk-based assessments, priority classification, and basic cost estimating. Information is also provided on load rating.  

 

Evaluations are normally performed after the inspection data is received. Sound engineering judgment is used to evaluate the consequences of tunnel system or component failure in terms of overall safety, service level, and costs. In some instances, supplementary inspections and testing may be needed where data is lacking. Risk assessment techniques should include strategies for deploying, operating, maintaining, upgrading, and disposing of tunnel system components in a cost-effective manner.

 

This 2 PDH online course is applicable to civil and structural engineers, as well as design and construction personnel involved with the evaluation process of tunnel systems.

Learning Objectives

This P.Eng. continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:

  • Understanding the evaluation criteria and methods of tunnel systems
  • Identifying the typical personnel involved in tunnel evaluation procedures
  • Familiarization with different testing methods
  • Understanding risk-based assessments

COURSE TITLE: Conduits, Culverts and Pipes - Design and Installation
COURSE NO: S04-001
COURSE PROVIDER: Gilbert Gedeon, P.E.
Conduits, Culverts and Pipes - Design and Installation
Course Highlights

This online engineering PDH course provides guidance on the design and construction of conduits, culverts, and pipes, as well as design procedures for trench/embankment earth loadings, highway loadings, railroad loadings, surface concentrated loadings, and internal/external fluid pressures.

 

In general, reinforced concrete conduits, culverts and pipes are used for dams, urban levees, and other levees where public safety is at risk or substantial property damage could occur. Corrugated metal pipes are acceptable through agricultural levees where conduits are 900-mm (36-in.) diameter and where levee embankments are not higher than 4 m (12 ft) above the conduit invert. Inlet structures, intake towers, gate wells, and outlet structures are usually concrete. However, corrugated metal structures may be used in agricultural and rural levees.

 

This 4 PDH online course is applicable to civil, structural and geotechnical engineers, as well as design and construction personnel involved with the design and installation of conduits, culverts and pipes.

COURSE TITLE: Underwater Inspection of Bridge Substructures Using Imaging
COURSE NO: S12-001
COURSE PROVIDER: Gilbert Gedeon, P.E.
Underwater Inspection of Bridge Substructures Using Imaging
Course Highlights

This online engineering PDH course provides basic information on the capabilities of sonar technologies in performing underwater bridge inspections and its benefits in supplementing dive inspectors to improve inspections.

 

The requirements for underwater bridge inspection procedures using divers are well documented within the U.S. However, some bridge inspectors and owners have increasingly been supplementing dive inspections with acoustic imaging technology to enhance inspection quality, increase safety, increase efficiency, and improve documentation of findings. This trend has accelerated, in part, because of advancements in sonar technology. The trend has also accelerated because site conditions adverse to dive inspections—such as limited underwater visibility, high velocity currents, submerged debris, and extreme water depths—exist at many bridge sites.

 

Because these adverse conditions can limit a diver’s ability to inspect a bridge below water, many states are investigating the use of sonar technologies for underwater bridge substructure inspection. FHWA provides overall guidance for these inspections and recognized the need for a comprehensive evaluation of the capabilities of sonar technologies for this important activity. In this study, a range of sonar technologies are evaluated in a variety of underwater conditions to determine how these technologies can be effectively used in conjunction with or independently of divers.

 

This 12 PDH online course is applicable to structural engineers and bridge personnel responsible for inspecting bridge foundations who are interested in applying sonar technologies for underwater bridge inspections.
Learning Objectives

This P.Eng. continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:

  • Familiarizing with sonar technologies including three-dimensional sonar systems and two-dimensional imaging sonar
  • Familiarizing with sonar technology reliability by evaluating variations in the speed of sound, transducer head movement, interference and noise, acoustic multipath,transverse and range resolution, acoustic shadows, slant-range distortion and GPS accuracy
  • Learning about technology selection and the strengths and weaknesses of sonar technologies including 3D real-time multibeam, 2D multibeam and 3D mechanical multibeam 2D sector-scanning and 3D profiler and Dive equipment
  • Understanding underwater bridge inspection environment for concrete, steel and timber bridges
  • Understanding phase I and phase II field testing and evaluating their findings
