HEC-RAS STEADY FLOW COURSE: August 2-3, 2021
This 2-day course is devoted to the use of the HEC-HMS program for hydrologic modeling. Course topics include: precipitation, hydrologic losses (infiltration), surface runoff (hydrographs), channel routing, and parameter estimation. This course includes 6 hands-on workshops.
HEC-HMS INTRODUCTION COURSE: August 4-6, 2021
This 3-day course is devoted to the use of the HEC-RAS program for Steady flow modeling. Course topics include: overview of model development, water surface profiles, bridge and culvert hydraulics, multiple opening analysis, and trouble shooting. This course includes 6 hands-on workshops.
HEC-HMS GIS & PMP COURSE: August 9, 2021
This 1 day course shows participants how to use GIS software to obtain watershed characteristics including: area, longest hydraulic length, average watershed slope, time of concentration, and curve number. Information is then input to the HMS model for the purpose of simulating the 72 hour PMP event using the HMR-52 precipitation option currently available within HEC-HMS. Peak flow optimization of the HMR-52 simulation is also presented. This course includes 3 hands-on workshops
HEC-RAS UNSTEADY FLOW COURSE: August 10-11, 2021
This 2-day course is devoted to the use of the HEC-RAS program for Unsteady flow modeling. Course topics include: geometric preprocessing, unsteady flow simulations, storage area and storage area connections, lateral weirs, dam breach analysis, and trouble shooting. This course includes 5 hands-on workshops.
HEC-RAS 2D COURSE: August 12-13, 2021
This 2-day course is devoted to the use of the HEC-RAS program for 2D flow modeling. Course topics include: Review of unsteady flow modeling via storage areas and lateral structures, adding a 2D area, developing 2D boundary conditions, running a 2D simulation, reviewing results of a 2D simulation via RAS Mapper, and troubleshooting. This course includes 5 hands-on workshops.
