NC State University Stream Restoration Program

This 3-day workshop provides an overview of natural channel design applications for stream restoration design. Students work in small groups in the field to survey a reference reach and analyze data to develop design parameters. They work through the process of developing a morphological table listing design parameters for stream channel dimension, pattern, and profile, and then develop stream channel layouts, typical cross-sections, and longitudinal profiles, and apply basic sediment transport calculations. Other topics include in-stream structures, plan sheet development, design specifications, and construction. Students are encouraged to bring laptops for spreadsheet applications. This workshop requires completion of RC 101 or equivalent background in stream morphology assessment.
