Design of Storm Sewers and Pavement Drainage
This two day course provides students with a thorough knowledge of surface pavement drainage design and hydraulic design of storm sewer systems. The course includes a brief review of hydrology for pavements, and detailed information on sizing curb open inlets, grates, and curb and gutter flow. More than one day is spent on sizing storm sewers, computing energy losses and hydraulic grade line calculations. Example problems are performed using nomographs and calculators. 1.4 CEUs
