    HEC-RAS modeling excessively long culverts

    Steady State. Originally we didn't have the time to develop an unsteady flow model, but if someone believes this might alleviate the issue I'm willing to develop it.

    HEC-RAS modeling excessively long culverts

    Has anyone had any experience with modeling a structure on the order of a triple 7' x 7' box culvert in HEC-RAS? I seem to have run across an issue with the program when trying to model a proposed 2,400'+ long version of the aforementioned structure for a project. We were tasked with needing...

    HEC-RAS and Manning's Roughness for large rock

    Does anyone have any experience with using manning's values in HEC-RAS for a streambank stabilization as part of a flood study? We will need to use rock with an avg. Diameter of approximately 3' or more for very large flows. I can't seem to really nail down any definitive values. And most of...

    HEC-RAS Modeling Bridges with piers

    Does anyone have any familiarity with the mechanics of the momentum equation as it's used to calculate the effects of bridge piers within HEC-RAS? Mainly with respect to the friction component, which can be de-selected prior to calculating the effects.

    Pond Pack modeling a 6 hour storm duration

    For some reason I've been assuming that the 6-hour storm would produce a larger peak than the 24-hour storm, however, its actually producing a lower peak value. Does this make sense or am i missing something in how I'm running these two different storms? I'm basically using the NOAA depth...

    Pond Pack modeling a 6 hour storm duration

    Could you also explain how to set this up in HydroCAD then? As i said I have a trial version and have it working, but would like to make sure I'm using it properly to validate the numbers i'm getting. Thanks.

    Pond Pack modeling a 6 hour storm duration

    Thank you both for your responses, but I still need some guidance with Pond Pack. We do not have HydroCAD, though I have a trial version, but ideally I would like to know how to do this in Pond Pack. I realize what the 6 hour storm would be with relation to the 24 hour storm, but I still...

    Pond Pack modeling a 6 hour storm duration

    Does anyone have some guidance for using Pond Pack to model a 100 year 6 hour storm event? We're being forced to compare a 100 year 24hr and a 100 year 6 hour storm event to determine which one produces a higher peak value. My intuition would have me believe its the 6 hour duration, but I'm...
