    You are correct, HEC-22 does not accommodate vertical breaks in conduits. Any conduit (open or closed) is treated hydraulically as a straight slope. Unless you are working with truly irregular ditches, I am of the opinion that a regular V or Trap shape…

    OK, I didn't realize from your original post that you wanted the upstream pipe to still be subject to invert adjustments but not size adjustments. I typically use the Design setting only for the first pass and then switch over to Analysis so ORD does…
