About the workshop
The Workshop provides attendees with up-to-date information and techniques on Rafts hydrology (Laurensen) for analysis and management of both urban and rural watersheds and the design of flood storages and river analysis works. Particular instruction in the use of xprafts from XP Software will be part of this workshop. The instruction will include discussions on the use of the Rafts method to develop stormwater runoff hydrographs, and the formulation of both on-site detention systems up to large retarding basins and channel/pipe systems. Lectures, demonstrations and hands-on exercises on supplied PC’s will aid in the review of xprafts software along with descriptions of the latest features. There will be enough time at the end of the workshop for a question and answer period with the trainer.
Who should attend
The Workshop will be of interest to consultants and government authorities and to engineers, managers and planners involved in detention basin and storage design, as well as stormwater analysis and design. This training will benefit both new and experienced users of the software. A wide range of attendees will be catered for with the modelling of examples and open forum covering a range of possible applications.
