This course covers Part 8 of the Ontario Building Code and is designed to prepare participants for the On-Site Sewage Systems (Part 8) technical licensing exam administered by the Ministry of Municipal Affairs & Housing (MMAH). The course covers the entire training manual produced by MMAH. In addition, supplementary material developed by the Ontario Rural Wastewater Centre, including additional material on approved alternative technologies, instructional videos, design problems and case studies is also provided. Finally daily access to hands-on demonstrations in our unique training facility is included. Please note the course does NOT include the licensing exam. none Introduction to Design of On-Site Sewage Treatment Systems This one day course builds on the 5 day Part 8 Ontario Building Code Installer/Inspector licensing course and helps participants develop skills with design calculations contained in the building code. Participants will be introduced to all types of soil absorption systems, including alternative trench technologies and area beds, and the design calculations required for these types of systems. Case studies will be used to illustrate the process of selecting and designing the most appropriate system for various sites. Participants will also be introduced to tertiary treatment systems and their components and how they can be incorporated into a design. Five-Day Part 8 Licensing Course or equivalent experience Advanced Design of On-Site Sewage Treatment Systems This one day course will take participants beyond conventional on-site sewage treatment system design principles covered in our introductory design course and introduce them to concepts such as high strength waste streams, grease removal, balancing tanks, complex pumping/dosing arrangements, using advanced treatment units for higher strength waste and large leaching bed design. This course will also cover methods of total nitrogen and phosphorous removal through on-site wastewater systems. Five-Day Part 8 Licensing Course and Introductory Design or equivalent experience Soils 101 course beneficial Inspection and Evaluation of On-Site Sewage Treatment Systems This 1 day course is designed to provide participants with practical knowledge for inspecting existing on-site sewage systems for maintenance inspection or resale purposes. Details of the legislation regarding maintenance inspections will be covered. The course also addresses the inspection of new on-site system installations to provide context for existing systems and potential problems. The course provides an opportunity for hands-on case study evaluation and problem-solving techniques for an existing system. The emphasis will be on assessing the health of a system, identifying possible causes of failure and potential remediation methods. Five-Day Part 8 Licensing Course or equivalent experience Greywater Recycling System Design This informative one day session is designed to provide participants with practical knowledge for designing and installing greywater recycling systems. It will also provide hands-on design knowledge looking at local installations and incentives for greywater recycling systems in Ontario. The emphasis will be on what greywater recycling systems are, the legislation related to greywater systems, how to design and install these systems and looking at examples within Ontario of greywater recycling systems. none Soils 101 – Evaluation of Soils for On-site Wastewater Technologies 1 day field course covering classification of soils; T-time & permeability; evaluation of soil test pits. Combines classroom information on performing soil investigations with a field investigation where percolation tests will be conducted. How to use field evaluation results in the design of on-site systems will also be covered. Five-Day Part 8 Licensing Course or equivalent experience Design Options of Onsite Systems under the Ontario’s Objective Based Code Ontario’s new Objective Based Code is structured to open up opportunities for new innovative designs for on-site sewage systems. This 1 day workshop will cover the requirements of the Ontario Building Code for objective based design, as well as the process by which designers can demonstrate compliance of innovative designs with the prescribed Acceptable Solutions in the Code. Specific design examples will be used to demonstrate the approach a designer may take for a variety of alternative solutions. Five-Day Part 8 Licensing Course and Introductory or Advanced Design or equivalent experience Alternative Technologies 1 day course on the OBC approved technologies. Alternative technology descriptions, treatment processes, applications, design and maintenance requirements will be covered. none Specialty course for Planners Overview of on-site wastewater characteristics, system performance, technologies with a focus on approvals for single units and communal systems. none Pumps and ControlsAdvanced Design of On-Site Sewage Treatment SystemsInspection and Evaluation of On-Site Sewage Treatment SystemsGreywater Recycling System DesignDesign Options of Onsite Systems under the Ontario’s Objective Based CodePrivate Wells & Water Treatment Systems for Real Estate ProfessionalsOn-Site Wastewater Systems for Real Estate ProfessionalsSelect Course Present OccupationSectorGovernmentPrivateCode Related ExperienceYesNoCourse LocationOnlineOttawaGuelphOtherSelect locationEnter "Other" course location1.
