Hydrology / Hydraulic Studies
Drainage is a unique part of every project we are involved with and it can be the most critical part of the design process.  The staff at AMD has extensive experience with all types of hydrology/hydraulic (H&H) analyses including but not limited to: watershed delineations; time of concentration determination; composite runoff coefficient and curve number determination; hydrograph and hydraulic modeling; roadway drainage; culvert design; storm drain design; bridge hydraulic design, scour analysis and revetment design; FEMA floodplain studies; LOMR’s and LOMR-F’s; retention and detention basin design; and playa lake analysis and cut/fill design.  Our staff is proficient in the use of the following software programs: HEC-1, HEC-2, HEC-RAS, HEC-HMS, ICPR (Interconnected Channel and Pond Routing), HY-8, CULVERT, THYSIS, and WSPRO.
