Problem
What is the difference between a stand pipe and an inlet box?
Solution
Stand pipes and inlet boxes have intake openings that are parallel to the water surface.
The structure is called a stand-pipe if it has a circular cross section and an inlet box from a rectangular cross section. Both surface openings discharge into a barrel sized large enough to prevent surcharge.
