Develop practical skills in water distribution system design using WaterCAD. Learn to build hydraulic models, define network components and demands, analyse system performance, size and evaluate pipelines, and interpret hydraulic results for effective water supply design.
Level: Intermediate
Software: WaterCAD
Discipline: Water Resources / Civil Engineering
Course Type: Practical, project-based
Primary Focus: Water distribution network modelling, analysis, and design
Key Topics: Network layout, pipes, junctions, reservoirs, tanks, demands, pumps, system modelling, hydraulic analysis, pressure evaluation, pipe sizing, and design review
Outcome: Develop and analyse practical water distribution network models in WaterCAD and use the results to support water supply design decisions.
Basic knowledge of fluid mechanics, hydraulics, and water supply engineering is required. Familiarity with pipeline systems and fundamental civil engineering concepts is recommended. WaterCAD should be installed and ready for use.
This course is intended for civil and water resources engineering students, graduate engineers, hydraulic engineers, water supply designers, consultants, and other professionals involved in the planning, analysis, and design of water distribution systems.
