Working With Combined Sewers

Geometric and Hydraulic Elements of Egg-Shaped Sewers

Thursday, February 6, 2025 12N EST, 11am CST, 10am MST, 9am PST
Webinar Series Overview
Do you like sewers? Do you like geometry? Do you like history? If you answered “yes” to at least two of these questions, then this webinar is for you. Combined sewers are designed and constructed with a wide variety of sewer cross sections. While the circular section is most common, other non-circular sections have also been used over the years. Therefore, working with combined sewers requires an understanding of the geometric and hydraulic elements of these non-circular sections when encountered.

The egg-shaped sewer section is the focus of this webinar. Descriptions of the most common egg-shaped sewer sections are provided, and historical perspectives regarding their development and application are discussed. The geometric and hydraulics elements of these egg-shaped sections are then defined, and the equations for the wetted area, wetted perimeter, and surface width for sewers flowing partially full are provided and validated. The result is a concise reference for wastewater professionals working with egg-shaped sewers in combined sewer systems.
Professional Development Hour (PDH) Documentation Requirements
For interested webinar participants, ADS will provide documentation for professional development hours, subject to the following conditions and limitations:
  • You must register individually, sign-in individually, and attend the live webinar in its entirety so that we have the means to validate your attendance and participation for continuing education purposes. We cannot provide PDH documentation for partial attendance, for viewing the webinar archive after the live webinar, or to individuals that watched the live webinar on another attendee’s screen without staying signed in for the duration of the webinar.
  • Most organizations do not specifically approve continuing education providers. However, it is your responsibility to determine whether this webinar meets the guidelines set forth by any particular organization.
  • Some organizations require the use of pre-approved continuing education providers. ADS is not a pre-approved provider for any particular organization, and this webinar should not be claimed as required continuing education for such organizations.

Tackling I/I with SLiiCER

Tackling Infiltration and Inflow with SLiiCER®

Part 3 – Understanding Wet Weather Flows

Thursday, November 14, 2024, 12N EST, 11am CST, 10am MST, 9am PST
Webinar Series Overview

Have an infiltration and inflow (I/I) problem? You are not alone. Most wastewater collection systems do. Resolving comprehensive I/I problems starts by evaluating flow monitor and rainfall data as part of an I/I study. Join ADS for a multi-part webinar series taught by experienced professionals where you will learn how to apply SLiiCER – our Cloud-based I/I analytics tool – to understand and prioritize I/I problems in your wastewater collection system.

Part 3 – Understanding Wet Weather Flows

Understanding wet weather flows in sanitary sewer systems is a crucial piece of the infiltration and inflow puzzle. This Part 3 webinar discusses techniques used to evaluate rainfall dependent infiltration and inflow (RDII) and shows how to leverage SLiiCER to run the calculations, assess the results, and make any adjustments needed.
