Time of concentration reported in flextable format

It would be nice to be able to enter and edit time of concentration information in a flextable format. Currently a separate dialog box must be opened for each catchment area to input Tc data for Tc computation. To review the inputs of the Tc compu...

initial abstraction ratio

State agency requires initial abstraction ratio (Ia/s) to be 0.05 for RPv events. software assumes default value of 0.2, and the user can't change it. We need to have an option to adjust initial abstraction ratio for specific scenarios of SCS unit...

[Copy] Make the Drainage Catch Basin Grate Perimeter and Open Area variables reportable

Some DOTs require input of an exact values for catch basin grate open area for orifice flow and catch basin grate perimeter for weir flow. ORD would consider these as calculated values, not inputs. These are not ORD outputs and are hidden from the...

Make it easier to integrate with projectwise

Currently, to allow CivilStorm (and I'm assuming StormCAD/PondPak) to integrate with ProjectWise, we have to edit an XML file following this guidance: https://bentleysystems.service-now.com/community?id=kb_article_view&sysparm_article=KB005824...

NRCS/SCS Peak Discharge

Currently I use ORD and have to use Civilstorm license to run SCS hydrology. I don't really need the full hydrograph for all projects. It would be to have get peak discharge using the stormCAD license inside ORD.

Tools that assist in automating calibration

A tool that streamlines the iterative process of calibrating a model. Allows the user to input upper and lower values for parameters such as %Imperviousness, Dstorage, RTK, etc. The software would then iterate or use a genetic algorithm to assist ...

Add Capability to Input Custom Grate Area and Perimeter and Report Output Grate Area and Perimeter

Even though grate input parameters such as grate length, grate width, and clogging factor already exist, the resulting grate area and perimeter used in both weir and orifice calculations are not reported as calculation outputs. The end user cannot...

[Copy] Allow the road slope to exceed the gutter cross slope

My state agency commonly uses gutters with a 4% cross slope. The maximum superelevation rate is 7%. The gutter slope stays at 4% in this situation. Spread does not compute in this scenario because "A depressed gutter must have a Gutter Cross Slope...

Perform only necessary computations

Applicable to CivilStorm, StormCAD, and probably PondPack. Sometimes we only use the software to perform certain computations. For example, we are wanting to analyze the storm sewer. The drainage areas would be connected to catchbasin elements. Ho...
