Global Learning for Operational Leaders
Introduction
Course overview
Water supply networks, sewers, storm drainage, treatment plants and pumping stations are essential to public health and urban life. Building and renewing this infrastructure involves deep excavations, work near live services, groundwater, traffic disruption and strict quality requirements for pipes, joints and structures that must perform for decades.
This Water and Drainage Infrastructure Construction training course provides a practical understanding of how water and wastewater infrastructure is planned and built. Participants learn about pipe materials and design principles, open-cut and trenchless installation methods, manholes and chambers, pumping stations and treatment plant construction, testing and commissioning, and the management of safety, traffic and community impacts.
The course is suitable for engineers, managers and supervisors working for utilities, contractors and consultants.
