Web-Based Training
We're pleased to announce the availability of free web-based training
seminars (webinars). Each program will devote one hour to a specific topic,
providing the opportunity for detailed examination of subjects that are not
feasible to cover with traditional training solutions. These are live
sessions, with the opportunity to ask questions and discuss specific issues with
the presenter.
Upcoming sessions will focus on new features added in
HydroCAD-10. Sessions will cover underground chamber modeling, CAD watershed
data extraction, and a general review of new features. Later sessions will
cover a wider range of existing HydroCAD features and applications. Most
sessions will be personally conducted by HydroCAD developer and CEO, Peter
Smart.
Please select a session below for further details. New live sessions
will be posted shortly.
#310 HydroCAD-10 Overview,
October 20, 2011, 1-2PM EST
Completed - See recording below
This session will provide an overview of the many new
features added in HydroCAD-10. Topics will include new outlet devices (including
tubes, siphons, dam breach), rainfall enhancements (including NOAA & NRCC
support, mass curve generation), and new data import capabilities (tabular &
CAD). The expanded chamber library and layout wizard will also be
discussed. Attendees will become aware of the new features and learn when to use them
to best advantage. Future sessions will cover specific features in greater
detail.
#311
HydroCAD-10 Rainfall Options, November 3, 2011, 1-2PM EST
Completed - See recording below
This session will discuss the many rainfall options
available in HydroCAD-10, ranging from basic IDF data to custom synthetic mass
curves. The session will cover the range of options for IDF file creation,
from manual file definition to downloading local rainfall data from NOAA,
NRCC, and other sources. Attendees will also learn how to generate local mass
curves for use with the SCS method, and see how they compare to the
traditional SCS rainfall distributions. The different options for defining
multiple rainfall events will also be discussed.
#312 HydroCAD-10 Outlet Devices, November 17, 2011, 1-2PM
EST
Completed - See recording below
This session will discuss the many outlet devices available
in HydroCAD-10, ranging from basic weir and orifice flow, to the new devices
added in HydroCAD-10, including tubes, siphons, and dam breach analysis.
Attendees will also learn how to model float-activated valves, skimmers,
constant-flow devices, and asymmetrical weirs. The session will provide valuable
modeling skills for all HydroCAD users.
#313 HydroCAD-10 Data Import, December 1, 2011, 1-2PM EST
Completed -
See recording below
This session will discuss the full range of data import
capabilities available with HydroCAD 10, from basic tabular import, to automated
extraction of watershed data from an AutoCAD drawing. Attendees will learn how
to choose the best option for their particular needs, how to prepare the data,
and how to configure their HydroCAD project to import the data automatically.
AutoCAD users will also learn how to construct the special drawing layers used
to describe subcatchment areas and land-use.
