InfoDrainage Pipe Design

Module overview

For drainage designs to be valid, they generally have to comply with local regulations. In the UK, for example, they must meet two criteria: no-surcharge and no-flood. Pipes have to be sized and graded adequately, so that they do not exceed capacity.

After completing this module, you'll be able to:

• Identify the rainfall theory appropriate for your storm water drainage project and create rainfall data.
• Design and size pipes for both a no-surcharge and no-flood criteria, complying with UK standards.
• Run the analysis on the pipe design and read the results in the Connections Summary Report.
