• SUDA Modeling of existing utilities

    I am trying to model existing utilities for our cross sections and am having a hard time modeling utilities that have bends like this watermain shown. I have inverts at the beginning and end of that line, and want to utilize the existing linework but…

  • Subsurface utilities_Appurtenances Modeling

    Hi, How can we model appurtenances (Bents, Valves, Endcaps etc....) in the subsurface utilities in 3D without using the 3D cells from Microstation DGN files. Currently, we are using 3D cells from modelled in the MicroStation to use in the model but…

  • Unable to extract utility from graphic

    I have created a hydraulic model and have been using it for a few weeks- now I am unable to extract utilities from graphics on any line I draw in the file and "Progress File" message pops up. Is there a way to get past this error without creating a new…

  • Drainage and Utilities Problem - Some elements were found in the DGN that were not found in the Utility Project and have been removed.

  • SUE/SUDA Utility insertion point issue

    I am working on recreating some existing utilities because the old utility files were done in an older work space. When I try to recreate the line and add nodes at each key point the node doesn't seem to be inserted at the correction location. So the…

  • SUE/SUDA conflict detection reports

    I am working on creating a conflict detection report, but it looks like the general report is displaying conflicts not in the area of this project. So I would like generate a report with just the selected rows in the report preview. Is there a way to…

  • lost SUE Metadata when copying a file

    While trying to move CAD files from Phase 1 to Phase 2 of a design project, the following has happened: Phase I used a different workspace than Phase II. There are a bunch of configuration variables set in the new workspace that are different from…

  • GEOPAK SS4 Crashes when SUE nodes are selected

    I have been working regularly with SUE in this file for about 3 months, and did not have any issues until last Friday when GEOPAK crashed when I selected SUE nodes. I can click on any other item in the file, including SUE links and edit normally. I can…

  • Error Connecting Conduit between nodes across referenced DGN files in Subsurface Utility (SUE/SUDA)

    In large projects, often there are multiple files representing different areas of utilities, which creates the need to have a conduit connect to a node within a referenced DGN. When ever I do this, the program shuts down entirely or does not allow it…

  • flex tables

    Will there be flextables created for sanitary lines? This is valuable from a plan production stand point.

  • Nodes not placing straight

    I am wondering why when I place a node (only headwalls) they are not placing straight. I have reviewed my cell files, and they are modeled correctly as a .cel. Thanks! Kim

  • [SS4] Liniar drain in SUE

    Hello everyone, We are using SUE for the storm water drainage and electrical ducts on a large design and build contract concerning railway platforms. Now we are in a situation where we need a linear drain to be placed parallel to the tracks, yet I…

  • 3D cell not placing properly

    We have developed a series of 3D cells to be used with SUE/SUDA. For some reason, when we place the headwalls, the 2D and 3D properties do not align. Can someone please advise how to resolve this? Thanks, Kim

  • "Extract Utility From Graphics".

    If you have multiple Pipes coming into one location, like Multiple Catch basin's draining to one Manhole, can you combine Multiple nodes created from extract utility into one node that represents the Manhole? then when I add my cell that represents my…

  • Place a lateral command problem

    When I try to use the command "place a lateral" it does not work out for me. I use an existing stormwater pipe, adding a new pipe and node with the same type as the existing pipe. The only product of the command is a point on the correct level, but no…

  • Change direction on conduits that are linked to lines.

    Hello, When I use a command chain as follows, the conduits direction cannot be change. How can I solve this? I create a line going from point A to point B (direction from A to B). Then I use the command "Extract Utilities from Graphic" command creating…

  • Adding a node (structure) to an existing pipe network (conduits).

    Hi! I am modelling a sewage pipe system where I cannot place a node / lateral connection on an existing conduit. The placement of my pipe system is obtained using the "Extract utilities from graphics"-command whereas the end and start point of the graphic…
