Hydrology and Hydraulics

WET specializes in hydrologic modeling and hydraulic design. We have stayed abreast of the latest methodologies and software release such as HEC-HMS, HEC-RAS, EPA SWMM, and are experienced with 1-dimensional and 2-dimensional hydraulic modeling. Hydrologic modeling is an essential part in completing hydraulic designs for detention structures (ponds/dams), water measurement structures (weirs/flumes, etc.) and water conveyance structures (diversions, ditches, culverts, etc.). We have developed hundreds of stage-discharge ratings at flood warning gages which gives us unique experience with hydraulic modeling that many other water resource firms do not have.
Hydraulic design experience includes design of the following:
-
Analysis and design of small dams including jurisdictional dams
-
Dam breach
-
Diversion channels
-
Culverts, weirs, and flumes
-
Riprap design and incipient motion analysis
-
Stream power and sediment transport capacity analysis
-
1D & 2D stage-discharge rating development and inundation mapping
