Engineering Field Tools (EFT) is a framework of engineering tools for planning and designing commonly applied conservation practices. The EFT software is intended for use by non-engineers, and it is available to NRCS users and public users. This webinar will cover the basics of the EFT software current capabilities. Easy-to-learn basic skills will be presented including use of the Hydraulic Formulas Tool, application of the Waterway Wizard, and determining earthwork quantities with the Survey Engineering Tool. The EFT tools not only support the conservation planner in creating a design, but also create reports that can be used as design documentation and final drawings to provide to a contractor for construction.
This webinar is presented by USDA NRCS Science and Technology.
