Hydrology 12 PDH Discount Package 1
This online engineering PDH course describes basic design principles of embankment and excavation ponds as well as construction requirements. Other topics include: water needs, preliminary soil investigations, watershed & stormwater runoff estimation, basin sealing, spillways and inlets, and operation & maintenance.
This 5 PDH online course is intended for hydrologists, civil engineers, agricultural engineers, construction engineers, municipal engineers, geotechnical engineers and environmental engineers. An attendee of this course will gain knowledge about planning, design, and construction of embankment and excavated ponds.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Be familiar with the general features of embankment and excavated ponds and the differences between them
- Be familiar with the items to be covered in a preliminary investigation
- Be able estimate storm water runoff quantity and rate using the runoff curve number method
- Be able to estimate the time of concentration for a watershed for a given flow length, average watershed slope, and runoff curve number
- Be familiar with the general features of a hooded or canopy inlet spillway and a drop inlet spillway, as well as the advantages and disadvantages of each
- Be able to make spillway design calculations using tables and figures given in the course file
- Be able to estimate embankment end area for known embankment height, side slopes, and top width
- Be able to estimate earthfill requirements for an embankment for known end areas and embankment length
- Be familiar with alternative pond sealing methods and comparisons among them

This online engineering PDH course covers procedures for evaluating the stability of a stream channel reach and planning and design for restoration of an unstable stream channel reach to bring it back into a stable condition.
A natural stream channel remains stable over a wide range of flows, typically accumulating sediment during low flow periods and carrying sediment downstream during high flow periods. Changes to the channel, vegetation, floodplain, flow or sediment supply may affect the equilibrium and cause the stream channel to become unstable.
This 7 PDH online course is intended primarily for civil engineers, hydraulic engineers, hydrologists, and geologists. Someone completing this course will gain knowledge about stream channel evaluation and stream channel restoration procedures.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Familiarization with the fluvial processes
- Learning stream assessment and survey procedures
