Spread Analysis of a Non-Inlet Location

Establish a means to complete a spread analysis at points of interest which are not inlets. Example 1: Determination of spread width at the end of a barrier/curb where there is no inlet. Example 2: Determination of spread width at a change in shoulder cross slope.

    If you're using a terrain file with the model, you can generate intermediate gutter sections from terrain, and see the results at every intermediate section. Does this meet the need?

    This feature would be very helpful!

    Often times there's a gutter that continues thru a super-elevated section of roadway so during a segment of the gutter the allowable spread must be confined to the gutter only, but upstream and/or downstream of this location the road becomes crowned and flow is allowed to spread into the roadway again. Being able to analyze spread a select locations would be super helpful for this.


    It would also be helpful for instances where a gutter is really long and the roadway has various longitudinal slopes, and we want to access the spread where the longitudinal slope is shallow, before we get to an inlet.
