Why do I need a model like SewerCAD to design a sewer system?
SewerCAD provides tested solutions to accepted hydraulic design equations. It includes gradually varying flow calculations with manhole losses and transitions between sub and super-critical flow. It can handle pressure as well as gravity flow. It not only looks at steady state conditions but also can track the operation of the system over time. With its automated design routine, SewerCAD can provide you with pipe size and invert elevations taking a lot of the trial and error out of design calculations. With SewerCAD’s Scenario Manager, it can track through as many what-if designs as you’d like using the visualization tools in the user interface.
