Hello,
I am creating a storm network and am having issues with the calculated slope for conduits.
I have nodes (manholes and catch basins) with defined inverts that are collecting multiple conduits. The conduits have higher stop invert than the node so I 'Set Invert to Stop?' to false and enter a defined invert.
However, the conduit slope seems to only reference the node inverts and not the user defined ones. How can I change them to reference the defined values?
Thanks.
Hello Christopher,
The slope of the conduit is dependent on start and stop invert of conduit and length of the conduit, not connecting nodes. ((Start invert - Stop invert) / Length) See below screenshot.
Are you using user defined length? Try to compact database to see if that helps, File>Database utilities>Compact database.
If this doesn't help then please provide more details, screenshots.

Sushma,
I ended up restarting my computer and logging back into Bentley. The conduits are now using the defined Stop invert instead of the node invert. I am not entirely sure what happened but it fixed itself.
Thanks!
Hi Christopher,
Glad to hear that it is working now. You may want to try temporarily changing one of the inverts to confirm that the slope is updating accordingly.
