HydroCAD - Pipe, CB & Parking Lot Detention
HydroCAD - Pipe, CB & Parking Lot Detention
(OP)
I am a HydroCAD new-be. I am looking to model a storm system where discharge is controlled by a snout outlet pipe in a terminal CB, pipe and CB storage, and parking lot storage to about 6-inch depth over the CB. The site is relatively small, 1-acre (fast food).
Any tips from experienced users on the best model setup?
Tips are much appreciated!

For your system, AJR44, I would enter each pipe as a single line in the storage table, and then enter the parking lot geometry as a custom stage-storage element in the storage table. I would ignore the grates as they'll pass more water than the outlet control will pass, most likely.
