Why do I need a model like StormCAD to design a storm sewer system?
StormCAD 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 free surface and surcharged gravity flow. With its automated design routine, StormCAD can provide you with pipe size and invert elevations—taking a lot of the trial and error out of design calculations. With StormCAD’s Scenario Manager, you can track as many what-if designs as you’d like, using the visualization tools in the user interface to help with decision making.
