SKU: RV-11340AW
Duration: 2.00 Hrs

Utilities and their infrastructure are one of the main facilities that support our modern society. From drinking water to telecommunications, underground utilities provide the basic services for our communities. Thus, their design is a critical component of construction projects. Through this interactive online course, engineers, architects, planners and contractors will learn design criteria for the design of different utility types, from gravity to pressurized flow facilities.
