2-Day HEC-RAS Sediment Transport Course

Lead by West Consultants, this hands-on seminar and computer workshop provides practical
training in sediment transport modeling. We will cover the algorithms HEC-RAS uses to compute
sediment transport, selecting a transport function, computing transport capacity, the quasi-unsteady
flow assumption, bed mixing algorithms, bed change options, and other fundamental computations.
The course will also discuss avoiding common sediment transport modeling problems.
Intensive workshops will instruct participants in basic sediment transport modeling input (e.g.,
boundary conditions, bed sediment samples, hydraulic information), model options (e.g., dredging,
transport equation calibration, cohesive transport, etc.), and output features.

Attendees should bring their own laptop with HEC-RAS 5.0.3

Learning Outcomes:

1. Set up and execute a sediment transport analysis within HEC-RAS.
2. Recognize the transport methods within HEC-RAS and select appropriate function(s).
3. Apply calibration and sensitivity techniques to their models.
4. Troubleshoot HEC-RAS sediment models.

7 CFM credits will be awarded per day attended.
