Permeable Pavement with varying depth

Please add an option to input the surface slope and formation level slope for the permeable pavements to represent the varying depth of storage below. This is one of the 3 options we use at steeper sites to provide adequate storage in permeable pa...

Allow underdrains to have a different slope to the SuDS feature

Allow a storage structure such as dry swale, bioretention area or infiltration trench to have a different slope to the underdrain. Currently the underdrain has to follow the slope of the feature, which is not a real life representation of how they...

Level Soffits in pipe network.

Although you can select Level Soffits in the Network Wizard, if you make a change in the manhole depth for example, the pipes in the network will return to invert level, which means that you will have to readjust them manually.

Modelling intermediate check dams and weirs in open channels including ponds ands swales

Currently, InfoDrainage only allows modeling of check dams or weirs at outlets. For open channels with multiple intermediate check dams, users must split the channel into sections, each with its own outfall defined. A more accurate feature allowin...

Non-circular pipes

Please add non-circular pipes to InfoDrainage, similar to those available SSA. These need the ability to connect to manholes at either end at a minimum, but the option to be culverted as well is welcomed.

Perforated Pipe as Connection Type

I would like to be able to model a perforated pipe as a connection type rather than use an infiltration trench and short branches of pipes to connect them to other stormwater controls. These infiltration trenches are not collecting inflow from sur...

Chezy Formula option

It would be useful to have a direct input for Chezy coefficient as an alternative to mannings n as some regions need to use this as an input and report on this too - this would result in less workaround and data manipulation

Option to remove the additional storage automatically added in geocellular systems

When designing a cellular soakaway, infodrainage automatically assumes a 1m2 plan area chamber between tank soffit and exceedance level (which would have been specified as ground level). In other structures you can specify freeboard and exceedance...

Junction Loss

There need to be more options for calculating junction loss. Having values for entry and exit loss isn't enough. Recommend HEC-22 and AASHTO at a minimum.

Liquid filled/Flooded drainage network

Liquid filled/Flooded drainage network- the system should be required to design flooded drainage network i.e. drainage pipe should be always filled with liquid for entire length up to the discharge point. Like a surcharge up to manhole cover (liqu...
