    Recommendations on Online Civil3d Training

    Hello- I'm looking for recommendations on or experiences with online Civil3d training that will count towards my annual PE pdh/ceu requirements. My experience with Civil3D is limited. I used Autodesk's Land Development Desktop for a number of years, then Civil3D for a year or so on a limited...

    Poultry Processing Waste Water Treatment

    ashtree, watthour and bimr- Thanks for the responses, your input has been very helpful. Regarding DAF units, where could I find information on smaller scale systems. Do you have any recommendations on manufacturers? Are there any effective alternatives to DAF? Regards.

    Poultry Processing Waste Water Treatment

    Bimr- The link didn't seem to be available? I forgot to mention that a grease trap will be required immediately after the prescreen. Are there other low cost / smaller scale FOG removal systems available? This is a fairly small operation, looking to primarily be a mobile processor. You are...

    Poultry Processing Waste Water Treatment

    ashtree- The treated water will be discharged into an absorption field. Because the maximum daily flows will be less than 500 gallons/day, the county seems to be OK with it. At this time I'm assuming the concentrations for the facility will be inline with averages from other poultry...

    Poultry Processing Waste Water Treatment

    Hello- I'm an engineer working on a fairly small waste water treatment design project for a poultry processing facility on a small familly farm. They plan on using a maximum of 500 gallons of water per day for washing the facility down after several hundred birds have been processed. Do you...

    Residential Wastewater Treatment in Impermeable Clays

    If I understand mound systems correctly, the sand is used to simply to distribute the waste water over a wider absorption area. The underlying base or native soils still need to have a percolation rate of less than 120 min/in. When dealing with clay or weather bedrock that has negligible...

    Residential Wastewater Treatment in Impermeable Clays

    Hoping to find someone with experience in on-site residential wastewater design, that could provide some insight in the design of a residential wastewater system where the local ground consists of platy-clay type soil. The soil is fairly impermeable with a perc. rate of over 120 min/in. I'm...

    Buried HDPE pipeline subjected to longwall mine subsidence

    Between four and five feet at the center. I able to determine the resulting surface curvature and tensile and compressive magnitudes and locations, so resulting strains on the pipe can be calculated. Just not sure how to determine a factor of safety with a viscoelastic material. Do simply...

    Buried HDPE pipeline subjected to longwall mine subsidence

    Someone on this forum should be able to provide some insight into HDPE pipe stress/strain design? Sure would appreciate the help.

    Buried HDPE pipeline subjected to longwall mine subsidence

    Hoping someone on the forum may be able to provide some design guidance on buried HDPE welded pipe. I'm working on a new water pipe design using PE 4710, 6" diameter HDPE welded pipe. Roughly 2000 feet of the pipe will be installed to replace the existing PVC pipe. The pipeline will only see...
