Addition of infiltration flows to foul drainage models in subcatchment items

When designing foul pipe networks, client guidance often directs users to incorporate an allowance for infiltration into pipes from the surrounding ground water. This is applied in addition to foul flows currently defined using the Main Drainage/ ...

Apply inlet template to grate only without overwriting the invert depth for the structure

We should be able to apply an inlet grate template to a structure without overwriting the structure's depth or other geometry. The current workflow requires manually applying templates and entering properties for sometimes hundreds of manholes, wh...

Infiltration trench with varying depth.

It should be possible to design an infiltration trench where the long slope at the base of the trench is different to the slope at exceedance level i.e. the depth of the trench varies. Extremely useful for designing a trench that does not match fa...

Freeboard in Results

When freeboard is exceeded from something like a basin, it is not immediately clear in the stormwater control results. It says flood risk and a water level that eats into the freeboard, but it does not flag up that this is an issue and is easily m...

Horizontal orifices as an outlet type

HydroCAD offers a horizontal orifice control outlet type that is very commonly used for detention pond outlet types in the US. Please include this as an outlet type so we can transition from HydroCAD to InfoDrainage.

Would it be possible to include longitudinal gradient (slope) to attenuation tanks please? At the moment it appears that software assumes that these structures are constructed flat whereas in real life these could be constructed with a gradient (slope) from the upstream end towards the outlet.

Add check dams as a feature for swales

Add a check dam setting with height, notch weir and interval settings to simplify modelling swales on sloping sites. This avoids having to model several sections of swale in order to use the available storage.

Changes to a network do not propagate downstream

If you change a pipe diameter or gradient, it will not accommodate these changes in the downstream section of the network. For example upsizing and steepening a pipe in the middle of a run will mean the next pipeis undersized and goes uphill. It a...

Slope in %

It would be very handy if the slope input option of % be present regardless of Regional settings; being just 1:x is an important limitation; also, if the slope in % could be shown in the section views, would be nice.
