Civil Works Involvement
► The
US Army Corps of Engineers is a
Federal Agency under the Department of
the Army. Because much of what is
created by the Corps it is available to the
citizens of the United States of America.
There are many exceptions which are
due to safety and security concern, and
sometime due to licensing agreements.

Center (SMIAC)
► SMIAC
is one of eight Corps of Engineers
information centers managed or sponsored by
ERDC. It was established in 1966 to acquire,
analyze, evaluate, condense, and disseminate
the world's literature in the subject areas of soil
mechanics, rock mechanics, engineering
geology, seismology, geophysics, hydrogeology,
and earthquake engineering

US Army Corps of Engineers HEIAC
HEIAC is supported by ERDC CHL’s multidisciplinary
technical staff of engineers, scientists, equipment
specialists, and other technical personnel who establish
and maintain historical, technical, scientific, and other
information collected throughout the world that is pertinent
to hydraulic engineering. Expertise is offered in areas of
estuaries, hydraulic structures, open-channel flow and
sedimentation, dredging research, navigation channel
design, operations and management techniques,
computer-aided engineering and modeling, hydrologic
research, and hydraulic Geographic Information Systems
(GIS) database development.

CEIAC
The US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE),
Engineer Research and Development Center
(ERDC), Coastal and Hydraulics Laboratory
(CHL), Coastal Engineering Information Analysis
Center (CEIAC), Vicksburg, MS, provides quick
referrals to, and establishes contact with, leading
authorities in various areas of technical expertise
in coastal engineering. CEIAC is utilized by a
diverse clientele including government and
private industry researchers, engineers, program
managers, students, and others interested in the
broad field of coastal engineering and science.

US Army Corps of Engineers The
Hydrologic Engineering Center
(HEC), an organization within the Institute for Water Resources, is
the designated Center of Expertise for the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers in the technical areas of surface and groundwater
hydrology, river hydraulics and sediment transport, hydrologic
statistics and risk analysis, reservoir system analysis, planning
analysis, real-time water control management and a number of
other closely associated technical subjects. HEC supports Corps
field offices, headquarters, and laboratories by providing technical
methods and guidance, water resources models and associated
utilities, training and workshops, accomplishing research and
development, and performing technical assistance and special
projects. The products that are developed from these activities are
for the Corps but are available to the public and may be freely
downloaded from this web site.
