Hydrology & Hydraulics

Detailed modeling, precise decisions

Garver’s qualified Hydrology & Hydraulics Team uses the most cutting edge technology to provide transportation agencies with the pivotal information needed to make precise decisions regarding bridge locations and size.

Before bridge design can begin, Garver’s team develops detailed flood models to determine its ideal height and size. Using newly-developed two-dimensional (2D) hydraulic modeling, the team can more accurately simulate flow in a floodplain, with velocity in two directions in the horizontal plane. In addition to bridges, the team can assist with stream erosion control and drainage manual updates.

Brockington Road

Brockington Road

Although widening Brockington Road in Sherwood, Ark. faced several construction challenges, the city worked with Garver's construction engineering and inspection (CE&I) team to complete the project on time and under budget.

I-244 Inner Dispersal Loop

I-244 Inner Dispersal Loop

Garver provided fast-track design services and plan production for the reconstructed west and north legs of the I-244 inner dispersal loop in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Mount Comfort Road

Mount Comfort Road

Mount Comfort Road, a minor arterial street in Fayetteville, Ark., now provides a smoother, less congested commute to nearby Interstate 540. Originally a two-lane road without curb and gutter, a widening project expanded the road to four lanes and incorporated sidewalks, bike lanes, drainage upgrades, turning lanes and intersection realignments.
