Does SS2 Storm and Sanitary have the ability to model Tidal Flow and Check Valves?

I am working on a project that modeling of Tidal outfalls and check valves be necessary. Does Storm and sanitary do this? Is there another Bentley program that will?

Thank you

  • Jesse,

    Thank you for this information! Does CivilStorm work directly with Microstation and Inroads? Can I view 3d models and HGLs in profile views?

    Thank you again.
  • CivilStorm does integrate with MicroStation but not directly with Inroads. Data exchange with Inroads is by way of import/export. Basically you can export a CivilStorm model to Inroads SDB and also import an Inroads SDB. The CivilStorm help goes into more details on the mapping between elements.

    For more "tighter" integration, consider the Subsurface Utilities Design and Analysis (SUDA) capabilities in the latest version of OpenRoads products. In SUDA, if you have a CivilStorm license, you can switch to CivilStorm as the product and utilize its numerical modeling capabilities (including the outfall capabilities mentioned above) while working in a Civil Design environment where you have access to more detailed profiling and physical modeling capabilities.

    CivilStorm "standalone" also has some built in profiling functionality. Here are some screenshots.

  • The integration with the SDB file was just what I was looking for. I like having the ability to view the model in 3D to check for conflicts with utilizes and minimum covers. With the ability to export back and forth I think the civilstorm will do the trick.

    Thank you
