Description
Detailed and advanced design of water supply systems, sewerage, and storm drains. Rates of flow and hydraulics of networks and sewers, rainfall-runoff analysis, storm water storage, and loads on conduits. Extensive computer simulation of systems. Prerequisites: CIV E 331.Learning Outcomes
Obtain flow data for and design pipes in a water distribution network using hydraulic modelling software to satisfy applicable design criteria;Analyze chlorine residual decay over time in a water distribution network using hydraulic modelling software;
Prepare system head-capacity curves and determine the required system operating point(s);
Prepare modified pump curves for parallel pump operation;
Calculate the load on a rigid conduit buried in a trench and select appropriate combinations of pipe strength class and bedding type;
Design a storm sewer by the spreadsheet method and by using hydraulic modelling software to satisfy prevailing design criteria; and
Analyse storm water detention pond performance using hydraulic modelling software.
