Drainage Engineering and Design

Drainage engineering is the Key Discipline to provide an efficient drainage system for any Infrastructure Project. In Road Projects, Drainage Systems are known as Sub-surface Systems and are designed to remove surface water from the road which would otherwise lead to flooding if not managed satisfactorily. The course modules provide detailed drainage system design process, Outfall Design, Network Modelling, Attenuation System Design and a brief overview of Sustainable Drainage Systems. Please see the Promotional Course Videos for a quick flavour. The first module covers the key components of Drainage Engineering, Drainage Strategy, Drainage Design, Outfall Design, Attenuation System Design. The second module covers drainage design process from the collection of surface water to discharge to the outfall locations such as existing watercourses. The module also covers the flood risk assessment process and Drainage Network Design, Gully Spacing, Kerb drains, and drainage modelling. The third module covers outfall design and Surface Water Storage System. The module covers Outfall types, Attenuation Ponds, Oversize Career Pipes and Flow control devices. The fourth module covers drainage standard details such as drainage kerbs, manholes, bus stop drainage kerbs, gullies, slot drains and Hydro-brakes.

Highway Drawings with CAD

“Highway Drawings with CAD” course covers details process of drawing creation considering highways features as the prerequisite. Preparation of highway drawings, needs to use various xrefs such as highway xref, road marking xref, pavement xrefs, etc. The course provides a comprehensive process to create highway drawing from scratch to printing final PDFs. The first module provides the operation process of the X-ref manager. It provides all the details of subcommands within xref window and how to operate it. It also demonstrates the process to create an xref and how to attach it with other drawings. The second module provides an operation process of drawings sheet production. It covers the process to set the drawing layouts with xrefs and then provides the details of sheet layout setting along with printer setting. Lastly, it covers the printing PDF process to generate hard copy drawings. The third module runs a pilot to generate pavement drawings. it covers step by step process to create pavement xref, layer creation of each pavement types, sheet layout setting, title frame setting, legend, notes, scale setting and finally printing drawings as PDF process.

MS Project - Basics

A Project is an undertaking, carried out individually or collectively as a team to achieve a goal. Every company or firm carry out projects activities every day either properly or casually. Every project requires detailed project planning in order to run the project more effectively and efficiently. Project planning provides organizations with a framework for scoping projects, sequencing activities, utilizing resources, and minimizing risks. This is a basic course covering key concepts of project planning using MS Project as a tool. A hands-on civil engineering project program is developed and step by step process is explained for the student to learn how to plan, analyse, and manage projects. Students will witness state-of-the-art methodologies to develop the project program. In the first module, students will learn about the following topics -Launching MS Project, start-up window, quick access toolbar, Ribbons and Menu, Options settings, etc. The second module provides a quick process to develop a civil engineering project with key design tasks. The course then explains the key parameters of a task and how one task is linked with another task. Please click to see the Preview of the Course. In the third module, students will learn task dependencies. How the function like start to start or start to finish etc works. The course also provides details of task constraint in civil engineering project environment and how to incorporate that in the project program. The fourth module provides a detailed process of sub-task development and how to link those sub-tasks within the main task. The course develops a situation where a sub-task comes with a constraint and explain the process to deal with the constraint without impacting the project duration. The project belongs to a civil engineering environment so it would be very useful for a student to correlate it with real-time project scenarios. The fifth module provides a detailed process of splitting a task. This is extremely critical for a task if it needs to be delivered in phases due to interlinking with other tasks. The course also provides a process of task formatting to make it unique against other tasks to easily identify it. The sixth module details out the meaning of free slack in the program and its advantage. The module explains the process of how to utilise free slack in a project program to effectively add any new task without affecting the overall duration of the project. The seventh module details the process of resource allocation. In this module, resources are assigned for a particular task of a civil engineering project and team members of different grades are assigned to carry out a task. The process will assist the student to understand how to assign a time frame to all team members to complete a task. The eighth module provides a detailed process of optimising resources. By doing this, key members of the team could be free up for carrying out another project. This would help the project team to efficiently utilize limited resources at any given time.

PRIMAVERA P6 Basics

Primavera P6 is a globally recognised one the most effective tool to plan, manage and execute civil engineering projects. But getting training of Primavera doesn’t come for free, most of the time. That’s why we develop our courses for a very nominal fee, yes you heard it right. It's only $5.00 if you are our subscribed member and you will not only get access to Primavera Course but also to all our courses that shows a $0 fee. Primavera P6 can sometimes be a complex tool to understand if your basics of using the tool are not clear. That’s why we develop our Primavera Basic Course for you to clearly explain step by step process to develop a project program. We use real-world civil engineering project examples and develop the program so you can easily grasp it and correlate it with your real-world projects. And you can view them as many times as you want. In the first module, students will learn about the following topics -Launching Primavera P6, start-up window, drop-down menus, toolbars, sidebars, option settings, etc. Please click to see the Preview of the Course. The second module provides details of Enterprise Project Systems (EPS). Primavera is a cloud-based Project Planning tool and it saves the projects program of the enterprise in EPS. So, it's very important for students to know how to operate EPS and how to create a new EPS category for a new project. The third module provides details of setting up a new project within a new EPS category within Enterprise Project Systems (EPS). The module also covers the process of developing a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) of a new project. This is the most important step of a project before assigning any activity. The fourth module provides a detailed process of creating activities of a project. We have developed a civil engineering project program, so the activities are developed for a civil engineering project. The fifth module provides a detailed process of setting up the calendar of the project. Primavera provides global and project-specific calendar options. It would be very useful to know when to use what type of calendar. The module also explains how to assign a calendar to a project. The sixth module explains the process of setting the layout page of the project program. It explains how to set the columns for activities, the Gant chart and the activity area. you can also customise the layout for a specific project or for a specific user. The seventh module covers the process of linking activities in three possible ways. It also provides details of predecessor and successor linking. The module also explains the linking process in a specific constraint situation and shows how that impacts the overall project duration. In the end, a high-level project program is created to demonstrate the whole process of project planning using Primavera P6.
