Linear works drainage course

In infrastructure development, efficient drainage is crucial to guarantee the sustainability and durability of linear works. Our course addresses the principles and applications of drainage on roads, railways and channels, taking into account both technical and economic aspects. Through four didactic units, we explore the specific hydrology of these works, water management through transverse drainage, management on platforms and margins, and the essential hydraulic for bridges and viaducts. We deepen the challenges of calculation and indetermination, supporting us in current methodologies and SIG tools, preparing participants to solve the design of drainage systems. Aimed at those who seek to understand and apply knowledge in real contexts, this course is a fundamental pillar in the preparation for the development of resilient and efficient infrastructure.

The objectives of the course are as follows: - Define the basic concepts involved in each of the phases involved in the design of the drainage of a linear work. - influence the degree of indeterminacy of some calculation parameters, both hydraulic and hydraulic. - Provide the students with a broad vision in terms of applicable methodologies in each of the design stages. - Establishment of the appropriate magnitude orders for each design. - Transmit the concept that the design of platform drainage and margins is not just uniform regime. - Highlight the importance of a good design should gather technical and economic aspects. - Introduce students into the potential of SIG tools in each of the design phases in which they are applicable.

When completing the "Linear Works" course, graduates can occupy essential roles in civil engineering projects, as specialists in hydrology applied to road works, responsible for the planning and implementation of transverse drainage systems, and experts in water management on platforms and margins. Additionally, the hydraulic formation of bridges and viaducts enables to collaborate in the design and maintenance of key infrastructure, ensuring its integrity and functionality against hydrological events.

This course of drainage of linear works prepares you to understand the hydrological principles and transverse and longitudinal drainage techniques applicable in road infrastructure. You will learn to solve uncertainty in calculation parameters and to apply properly taking into account technical and economic factors. In addition, you will explore the use of SIGN tools to optimize the design of drains in bridges, viaducts and more.

The course "Drainage of linear works" is aimed at professionals in civil engineering and related areas that seek to strengthen their understanding in applied hydrology and best practices in water management for road infrastructure. Oriented to those who wish to acquire practical knowledge in transverse and longitudinal drainage design, hydraulic bridges and SIG tools, offering an integrative vision of technical and economic factors in the creation of efficient systems.
