Hydraulics Facility

In south Louisiana, close to sea level, rainfall drainage can be a challenge. Other issues such as salt-water intrusion and coastal restoration are equally challenging for civil engineers. The Hydraulics Laboratory contains modeling equipment used to demonstrate the properties of water in open and closed channels. Students can easily visualize these concepts using this equipment.
