Culvert Design and Operation:
The design and operation of culverts is critical to effective flood risk management.
Inadequate design or neglect can lead to severe flooding. This training, based on CIRIA C689 Culvert design and operation guide, provides guidance on the whole-life cycle of culverts, recognising that there is an enormous stock of existing culverts of various types, sizes, age and condition.
This training course provides asset managers and designers with a comprehensive understanding of the whole life cycle of a culvert, providing guidance on inspection, assessment, maintenance and renewal of existing, culverts, as well as their design. The training is underpinned by the principles of whole-life asset management and a systems approach to drainage. Guidance will be given on cutting edge hydraulic assessment techniques, taking account of developments in hydrology and hydraulic analysis.
The training will be relevant to:
- infrastructure asset managers
- flood risk and drainage engineers
- landscape architects
- planners
- architects
as well as those working in or with environmental regulators, local authorities, highway authorities, developers, consultants and contractors.
