Culvert design does not need to be so cumbersome. This 1-hour online course covers how to design culverts, or any circular conduit that carries water by gravity downhill. It includes a quick review of gravity flow, and walks you through using Manning''s Equation and the Hazen-Williams formula. This course comes with a useful spreadsheet which incorporates both formulas to help simplify your design process. The spreadsheet can be used in a number of ways.

Course Objectives

After completing this course, you will:

  • Understand how to design a culvert
  • Have reviewed Manning''s Equation and Hazen-William''s forumla, and how to use both to determine gravity flow
  • Have a tool to help make short work of a tedious task
