This five-day course is designed to for engineers to gain familiarity with AutoCAD as a stream monitoring and restoration design tool. Students will explore the features of the Land Desktop and Civil Series extensions of AutoCAD and learn how to apply these tools to stream monitoring and restoration design projects. Students will also be provided with the opportunity to evaluate and graphically design a stream restoration project using their newly acquired skills. Each student will have access to a computer for use during the course.
It is assumed that registrants will have a basic understanding of AutoCAD terms and functionality. Registrants who do not possess such knowledge are encouraged to attend the optional May 1st, 2006 half-day session "Introduction to AutoCAD Basic Commands". It is also assumed that registrants will have a basic understanding of stream restoration. Registrants who do not possess such knowledge are encouraged to attend the optional May 1st, 2006 half-day session "Introduction to Fluvial Geomorphology". This course is not and design course but the course requires a very basic understanding of Natural Channel Design.
