MWH Soft is pleased to bring you the most comprehensive
and relevant network modeling training course of its kind.
The objectives of this course are to provide hydraulic
engineers with a step-by-step, best-practice approach
for developing a sound water system master plan by utilizing
the latest techniques in GIS data manipulation for hydraulic
model construction, analysis, and calibration. This course
covers many aspects of water system master-planning activities
including: a master planning overview, creating a hydraulic
model, modeling wells and VFD's, establishing planning
and design criteria; utilizing advanced GIS modeling tools,
interfacing with GIS Departments, use of extensive GIS
data sets and network skeletonization, conducting a demand
analysis and allocating network demands; calibration of
a hydraulic model using fire flow tests, protecting water
systems during breakdown and isolation events, and the
need and importance of a Capital Improvement Program (CIP).
The course is taught by hydraulic modeling and GIS experts
who have years of practical master planning experience.
In addition to the previously mentioned topics, the engineer
will be introduced to MWH Soft's extensive suite of add-on
modules including Skeletonizer, Allocator, & Calibrator.
Learning to proficiently use your hydraulic model and
to acquire a broad-based knowledge of advanced master
planning topics is just one of the many goals of the course
and several hands-on, "real-world" examples
will be modeled by course participants. Such capabilities
will greatly assist engineers in creating reliable network
models and in making informed decisions to ensure that
accurate CIP costs are realized. The software tools provided
by MWH Soft will directly assist in the overall planning
scheme for any utility, including maximized GIS integration
efforts, improved demand allocation and forecasting, and
optimized calibration efforts for system flows, tank levels,
and fireflow demands.
The student will leave the course with a clear picture
of how to complete a successful water system master plan.
Students will also learn the latest advances in GIS integration
and automation using our hydraulic model interface. Network
updating will be streamlined and the bottom-line will
be achieved with optimal calibration techniques and data
accessibility. Classes are offered on a regular basis
at MWH Soft Educational Headquarters in Denver, Colorado, where
we provide excellent facilities. We can also arrange to
conduct the class at your own location. |
