Drop inlet model in hydrocad
Drop inlet model in hydrocad
(OP)
I want to make sure that I am appropriately modeling my drop inlet in Hydrocad. The drop inlet is a box structure w/ a 5.5' drop to a CMP w/ D = 36". What is the best way to model this in hydrocad? Thanks!

What I hear you saying (or what I infer you saying from your reply) is that I don't need to put anything in for the box so long as I don't think it will overflow. Is that correct? If so, would my inlet elevation for the culvert be the elevation at the top of the drop structure and the outlet elevation be the elevation at the outlet of my culvert?
Thank you! Your response is much appreciated!

If you're not expecting to have overflow, you can omit the overflow outlet, and all you need is the culvert.
