About the Course

A webinar on the buoyancy of buried infrastructure as it relates to underground pipe and culvert design.  Attendees walk away with three things:  1) Basic theory of pipe buoyancy and susceptible scenarios for pipe flotation  2) Two theories to calculate pipe flotation potential  3) Factors of safety consideration. Examples are also given to help put the learning into action.
