I need to layout an area where horse trailers will be travelling, parking, etc. Which standard vehicle comes closest to the largest possible trailer? I have seen many horse trailers and they can get quite large. I'm playing right now with the AASHTO templates for WB-40, SU (single unit...

Thanks Tincan, but I got a spreadsheet that works from someone who posted on the other thread. I appreciate everyones help - I have what I need. Thanks! Kate

Hello - Our office just upgraded to LDD 2004. There are a few of us who would like to know more advanced information about using LDD to its fullest advantage for the type of projects we do (site development), as well as the changes from LDD v. 3 to v. 2004. We want to try to get custom...

Mala - you may right except I want the spreadsheet to find the depth of water - based on pipe information and flowrate. I don't have that input variable. I'm sure there is a way to calculate it - I can solve manning's for depth in a trapezoidal channel, but to write it in Excel for a circular...

Thanks - I have the equations that EGT01 posted from Perry's book - just trying to figure out how to run that in the program to get what I want. I think BLTSeattle helped (see the other forum for Storm/Flood engineering) - I am not familiar with VBA codes in Excel, but I will try to teach...

Thanks - I am not familiar with VBA codes in Excel, but I will try to teach myself tomorrow! I appreciate everyones help - Kate

Hello -- I have been trying to figure out a solution for this in Excel and can't figure out how to do it. I want a formula that can determine velocity in a circular pipe (not flowing full). I have a design flow, capacity of the pipe, and all of that information. I need something that...

I am familiar with horse boots and doc martens - I'd vote for the horse boots as long as they are clean and not scuffed up. For hair I'd say either a braid or a french twist, but no ponytail. (too casual) Good luck! Kate

Is anyone familiar with using Autodesk Civil Design for designing storm sewer systems? I am trying to use its full capabilities for the first time, and I have some questions. Right now my largest problem is joining runs - I have a main run down the street, and I want to join in a short run...

Try looking through the Army Corps of Engineers Website www/usace.army.mil/ They have a lot of technical publications available, and somewhere in there should be the answer you need.

While I agree that CVG and KRS are correct - I interpreted the question as to whether or not the off-site drainage would have to be detained. If I am right - read on. If not - ignore me! You have to design your system to handle the offsite flows but you do not need to reduce those flows. In...

In the &quot;Standards for Soil Erosion and Sediment Control in New Jersey&quot; - the equations are as follows TW<0.5 Do La=(1.8*(q/(Do^.5))) + (7*Do) W=(3*Wo)+La TW>0.5 Do La=3*(q/(Do^.5)) W=(3*Wo)+(0.4*La) D50= (0.016/Tw)*(q^1.33) Where Tw can not be...

Hello - Since GeoPaveTraffic was so helpful in the curb ramp thread - I figured I'd throw another one at you. Can a handicapped ramp be curved? This is not a curb ramp, but a ramp for a building. I understand that the beginning and end of the ramp need to be &quot;square&quot; for the...

GeoPave - Thanks! That publication is great. Just yesterday, I was in a meeting with a town engineer and we were discussing handicapped ramps. In his experience, the typical details we tend to cut and paste aren't constructed to be code-compliant. He had great solutions for the design - and...

I agree with the comments about how important writing is to an engineer - both legally and to keep up professional appearances. A previous colleague (much older and more experienced than I) had excellent writing skills, but a few &quot;bad habits&quot; when it came to communicating verbally. I...

A-HA!!! Just talked to the cad guy... I don't have the latest version of Express tools! He'll update me on Monday. Thanks all!

CADaver - Actually I have AutoCAD2000. And typing it doesn't work either. But thanks for your help - I appreciate it!!!

I have express tools, but no &quot;layout&quot; tools... I'll look into it and ask our CAD guy. Thanks for the help!!!
