Day 1: Introduction to EPA SWMM5 and PCSWMM
Designed with the beginner in mind, the first day will focus on the basics including SWMM5 hydrology and hydraulics, building a new stormwater/sanitary model from scratch, hydrologic parameterization, storage facility design, dual drainage system design and GIS data integration. Other topics covered include design storm system analysis, continuous water quality simulations and introduction to climate change modelling.
Day 2: Intermediate use of EPA SWMM5 and PCSWMM: Green Infrastructure and integrated 1D-2D modelling
Aimed at strengthening existing SWMM5/PCSWMM modelling skills, day 2 provides an in-depth look at new green infrastructure capabilities in PCSWMM and EPA SWMM5 including green roofs, bio-retention, permeable pavement, rain barrels, infiltration trenches, rain gardens, vegetative swales and rooftop disconnection. Other topics include sensitivity, calibration and error analysis and result interpretation.
Day 3:Intermediate/advanced use of EPA SWMM5 and PCSWMM for continuous modelling
Day 3 provides an in-depth look at continuous hydrology and hydraulics modeling including: integrated 1D-2D model development and results interpretation for watershed flood analysis, urban flooding and dual-drainage analysis using a 2D overland mesh and post-processing. Other topics covered include flow duration curve analysis, long-term rainfall disaggregation and correcting run errors for a subwatershed model.
