    Modeling Off-Site Areas

    Thanks gbam. You can create an inflow-capture curve in StormCad. I'm not sure what assumptions I would make to develop one. Would it be easier to assume a percent capture? Would 80% capture be reasonable? This is for a roadway drainage system. The offsite areas are mostly residential with...

    Rainfall Event

    We had a similar issue. Our problem was finding accurate enough data to analyze. Our closest rain gauge to the site is 7 miles away in Philly. Recently we have been having smaller intense localized storms making that rain data useless. We had inlets and manholes surcharging and the gauge in...

    Modeling Off-Site Areas

    Can someone explain an acceptable way to model off-site drainage areas without modeling the entire upstream network? I have the total offsite area and an estimated rational flow. I'm using StormCAD for Microstation V8i if that helps at all. If I assume a full capture inlet or inject the flow...
