The model will adjust the pipe downstream of the modifications accordingly. In addition the user can also step through the design one pipe at a time and change as required. The user can size the pipes for a 5 year storm and then process a 10 year storm through the system. Once a system has been designed, the user can selectively plot profile graphs of branches of the network. This can be done by identifying the starting and ending pipes.
Users have full plotting control, e.g., vertical exaggeration, grid stationing, labeling, etc.
The profile formats are compatible with GWN-DTM profiles. A pop-up calculator for hydraulic and hydrologic design is also provided. With the use of pipe tables, the available pipe is automatically selected based on the design pipe size. The values from this table are used for input to our knowledge-based design process. This storm sewer software has been designed to provide the user with a cost-effective tool for interactive storm sewer design and modeling.
