Water system design and analysis can be costly, time consuming, and challenging for municipal agencies. The combination of CAD, GIS, simulation and analysis features needed to produce a useful model usually means bouncing between different technologies and platforms. Often, it's a marginal CAD-enabled platform that requires export to a GIS platform, or a limited bolt-on tool that is tied to a GIS platform, neither supporting the iterative need...

SECURITY and ENGINEERING personnel involved in designing entry control facilities, both vehicular or pedestrian, will attend this three-day course. Students will focus their attention on the features required for the effective, efficient and safe operation of access and entry control points at compounds and controlled area perimeters. Items discussed include; calculating lane queuing, guard shack and guard manning requirements, barrier resista...

After attending this unclassified Workshop, students will be able to oversee design and construction of a sensitive compartmented information facility (SCIF) which meets official government requirements for a secure area where classified information is handled. The stringent physical security requirements; such as, access control systems, thickness of doors, the strength of concrete and the use of alarms, and acoustical controls which prevent...

(SAE) Security for Architects and Engineers – This 2-day course explores principles developed over the last twenty years in the “social behavior” arena. The same concepts that effect positive social engineering are duplicated in designing inhabited spaces to cause people to do what you want them to do. Students will learn to design “from the curb inward” and incorporate overlapping threat prevention principles. We...

Safe-room, panic rooms, evacuation shelters, tornado cellars and collective shelters all provide protection from man-made or natural threats, for both short and long periods of time. They usually serves as a place to repair to during emergency situations; a fall back position in case of emergencies, if you will. Effective design components; i.e., air requirements and waste management, capacity limits, use of electronic media and other technolo...

This course is available to all Federal, State, local government and private sector SECURITY and ENGINEERING professionals. While the course focuses on securing DOD assets, the concepts learned are prudent and applicable in reducing the criminal and terrorist threat to non-DOD buildings, as well. Contractors and consultants seeking construction contracts with the Department of Defense will attend this course. The course is designed to familiar...
