Force Main Rehabilitation
This online engineerng PDH course presents the characteristics of force main systems, as well as force main system selection, design, operation and maintenance.
Force mains that carry sewage flows under pressure represent a special set of challenges for sewer rehabilitation. A rupture of a sewer force main could release millions of gallons of raw sewage into the environment posing significant health risks to the general public and significant impacts to the environment. As some of the newer rehabilitation technologies develop a positive track record of use in sewer force mains and confidence in their design approach and installation process strengthens, more utilities are willing to consider these technologies as potential renewal solutions.
This 8 PDH online course is applicable to engineers involved with the design, construction, operation, maintenance, and/or rehabilitation of sewer force mains.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Introduction to force mains
- Understanding the characteristics of force main systems
- Understanding the renewal practices and technologies for force main systems
- Considerations and methods for technology selection considerations
- Considerations and methods force main system design and QA/QC requirements
- Considerations and methods for operation and maintenance of force main systems
In this professional engineering CEU course, you will need to review the EPA publication "State of Technology Report - Force Main Rehabilitation", EPA/600/R-10/044 - March 2010.
