Course: 5th HEC-RAS Water Modelling
View 2D Water Modelling with HEC-RAS Course March 2019
Hydrologic Engineering Centres-River Analysis System: Latest version.
Using the latest version 5.0 of HEC-RAS, this week-long series of courses covers basic, intermediate and advanced levels across both 1D and 2D.
HEC-RAS is recognised as an industry standard hydraulic modelling program that is widely used throughout the world.
The 1-day courses run consecutively through the week, enabling attendees to join any combination of the courses.

Workshop PROGRAM Note: All course days will be taught using HEC-RAS 5.0 software
This training is offered in association with Floodplain Management Australia, Engineers Australia the Australian Hydrographers Association and the Australian Water Association. Members of EA, FMA, AHA, AWA receive a 20% Discount.
This training will use the latest Version 5.0 of HEC-RAS, a globally-respected water modelling package, available for free download from the US Army Corps of Engineers, who author and support this software. The new version includes two-dimensional floodplain modelling, unsteady sediment transport, bank erosion, water quality, and the RAS Mapper GIS interface.
This week consists of five courses, run consecutively, and you can attend any combination of courses with respect to your level of experience and understanding.
Course attendees will learn to build, run, and animate flood models using the free HEC-RAS software

Benefits:
– Understand the methods used by HEC-RAS software in modelling channel and flood plain storage
– Learn about unsteady flow and sediment transport analyses
– Undertake hands-on HEC-RAS modelling exercises with full instruction
– Know how to consult with modellers and to engage with management regarding HEC-RAS models
– Know when it is appropriate to build an expensive model and when back-of-envelope will do
– Recognise the “point of diminishing return” in a model construction and implementation
– Learn troubleshooting and computational optimisation techniques
– Learn how to scope model development and review model results provided by others
There will be ample opportunity to discuss issues that course participants have encountered in professional practice.
All courses include lectures and workshops with hands-on case studies.
Attendees bring their own Windows-based laptops for installing software (installation links will be provided prior to the course). If you are unable to provide one, please inform us on your registration.
