Design and Check Sanitary Sewers in Minutes!

• Use for master planning, rehabilitation, new design, and include future growth in your sewer model
• Model looped networks, flow splits, combines, overflows, storage capacity, pump stations, and force mains
• Analyze sanitary or combined sewer systems
• Include manholes, inlets, sewer networks, pumps, storage structures, control structures, inverted siphons, overflow diversions, relief sewers, and other elements within a single model
• Construct network sewer models from AutoCAD and MicroStation drawings, or GIS geodatabases
• Check CMOM (Capacity, Management, Operation, and Maintenance) capacity requirements for compliance
• Find and fix sewer bottlenecks, optimize control rules, reduce overflow occurrences, perform capacity analyses, etc.
• Regulate flow to treatment facilities by determining storage within the sewer system and design storage structures
• Perform CSO (combined sewer overflows) and SSO (sanitary sewer overflows) mitigation studies while accounting for RDII (rainfall derived inflows and infiltration)

Spatial Reporting

StormNET can plot analysis results directly on the plan and profile views, showing peak flows, depths, flood elevations, maximum velocities, etc. Model results on the plan view can be plotted in which the color and size of the pipe and manholes are dependent on the model results. Both the plan view and profile plot can be animated to show the results varying with time.

Animated profile plots illustrate how additional storage can attenuate overflows

Color-coded plan view allow you to quickly find bottlenecks
