Sediment Transport in Stream Design – HCF Lunch & Learn

We recently had the pleasure of learning from our water resources engineer, Easton Perkins, EIT, during a company-sponsored Lunch & Learn. He shared insights from a Sediment Transport course he took through Utah State University‘s Department of Watershed Sciences. He highlighted how rivers shape themselves—and how engineers can design with nature in mind. A great reminder that understanding critical processes leads to more resilient, sustainable solutions.

Welcome to the HCF Blog

We’re excited to officially launch our blog—a space where we’ll share insights, project highlights, behind-the-scenes stories, and the occasional bad pun (you’ve been warned). At HCF, we’re passionate about designing safe, resilient infrastructure—but we’re just as passionate about connecting with people.

Whether you’re a fellow engineer, a city planner, a client, or just someone curious about what we do, this blog offers something valuable: technical know-how, helpful resources, and maybe even a laugh or two. You’ll find everything from water resources, deep dives, and civil design tips to lessons learned and real-world project experiences.

Thanks for joining us—let’s build something great together.
