There will also be discussion about the different types of collections systems, types of sewers, shapes of sewers, and collection system appurtenances.

We will also analyze the basic considerations of sewer design and work out a few simple design problems with the help of graphs from the FE Handbook and Manning’s equation, which is widely used in the industry.
