Add (change template) inlet from template to a junction without erasing the part family for the existing object

For example, in a model exported from Civil 3D, HEC-22 inlets need to be added to 100s of structures. The workflow is: 1. Create an Object Template for the HEC-22 inlet2. Right click each structure and change template to add a HEC-22 inlet The pro...

Weir coefficients

Expand the allowable range of weir discharge coefficients in InfoDrainage and provide an optional depth–coefficient user defined table to improve modeling flexibility and accuracy. Weir discharge coefficients (English units) typically range betwee...

Lock pipe diameters only.

After simulation and there is flooding, trying to upsize the pipes, if the wizard is run again it reverts to the previous diameter, i dont want to lock (ALL) as i still want to use the wizard to lower the inverts etc, downstream.

Add ability to create custom channel as underdrain (not just pipe)

Currently, you can only chose a pipe or multiple pipes as the underdrain within various features (infiltration trench, dry swale etc.). It would be great if a custom channel (section) could be used so an infiltration trench could be used to model ...

Add Infiltration Option to Manholes

Other software allows you to add infiltration properties to manholes. In Western Australia, the use of Soakwells/Soakpits is an often practice and it is important to be able to account for this local infiltration within the Manhole

Apply direct inflows to permeable paving

There should be a way of applying the inflow that the paving receives directly (i.e. the rain that falls onto it) to produce a more accurate simulation of the rainfall. This direct rainfall isn't a lateral or point inflow, and being forced to mode...

Simulation Health Improvements

In certain instances, the suggestions provided in "Simulation Health: The results indicate flow continuity issues, even when the shortest time step is already selected in InfoDrainage" may not resolve the problem. This could be addressed by incorp...

Add Gravel Pit to Soakaway Design Tool

As a former MicroDrainage user, I'm struggling to model soakaways in InfoDrainage, as InfoDrainage does not account for storage volume within the gravel filter media that surrounds the soakaway. The gravel pit also provides larger area of infiltra...

Convert connections to bypass connections

There should be an easier way to convert connections to bypass connections. Currently a connection needs to be deleted and recreated as a bypass. Having a right click option on a connection to convert it to a bypass would be ideal.

Better hydraulic representation of flow in permeable paving

Flow through permeable paving does not occur as one would expect. Is greatly affected by the shape and direction the paving is drawn in InfoDrainage. When drawing an irregular shape the hydraulic grade lines appear incorrect, with flow all at one ...
