Description
Extracting groundwater for use as public water supply, irrigation, or industrial supply presents a challenge to Engineers, Geologists, and Well Drilling Contractors. Water wells must be designed to fit existing natural conditions. Factors including aquifer parameters (location, depth, rock types, and water yield capacity), geology and water quality, are unique to every location. The professional engineer, geologist, and well driller need to be informed of these factors to complete a successful water well construction project. This two hour interactive online course will introduce you to the necessary steps in a water well design project. Proceeding with researching of local groundwater conditions to obtaining information necessary to locate and plan a well, this course presents techniques for designing a water well. You will learn valuable skills in the phases necessary to implement a well construction project.
