Hydraulic Structures – Conduit Outlets
This course discusses the fundamental concepts of hydraulic concepts and design criteria for conduit outlet structures. Any outlet structure must be designed to match the receiving stream conditions that require an analysis of the probable range of tailwater and bed conditions that can be anticipated including degradation, aggradation, and local scour. Various measures and design considerations are also presented to protect the downstream channel or stream and control the culvert outlet flow.
Learning Objectives
This course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Learn how to apply design procedures for the hydraulic structure of conduit outlets;
- Learn the applicable design considerations for the outlet structure;
