Wave of the Future: 2D Hydraulic Models Prediction and analysis of surface water flows and flooding is becoming more important than ever. Landowners, government agencies, engineers, and anyone involved in water resources projects have an elevated responsibility to provide the best available data and solutions. Two-dimensional (2D) surface water models are often the best tool to accomplish project goals – luckily that shouldn’t come with significant, if any, increased cost. With the release of HEC-RAS 5.0, 2D surface water models are now a common tool in our hydraulic modeling toolbox. They can produce more accurate and detailed results in many hydraulic modeling applications. For ownersRead More →

How to Use PDFs with Revit By Terry Jiracek, CAD Designer – You are working in Revit on a project that is nearing the final deadline and time is of the essence. The final detail you want to include is in PDF format, but Revit generally does not support PDF files. What should you do?You could redraw the detail, but you might miss your deadline. If only there was a way to import the PDF into Revit, you would not have to worry about missing your deadline.Rest assured, there are ways to incorporate the desired system details and stay on deadline. Software Versions Matter IfRead More →

How Using a Pre-Manufactured Structure Can Save Your Project Time and Money By Brian Literski, PE – Industrial mining projects use pre-manufactured Electrical Power Houses (Ehouses) for completing projects on schedule and within budget. I am often asked what makes these Ehouse units a better choice than a permanent electrical room, and when an Ehouse should be considered for projects. Before I answer these questions, let me first define an Ehouse. Ready to ‘Plug and Play’ An Ehouse is a self-supported pre-engineered building that contains and houses most of the electrical equipment for an industrial project. Ehouses come in a variety of shapes and sizesRead More →
