Depth Width Curve Dialog Box

A depth-width curve is a method of describing a closed conduit that is not a standard shape. The Depth Width Curve dialog box lets you enter points on a depth-width curve for a conduit whose Section Type is defined as Irregular Closed Section.

The dialog box contains the depth vs. width table and the following controls:

     
New This button creates a new row in the depth-width table.
Delete This button deletes the currently highlighted row from the depth-width table.
Report Opens a print preview window containing a report that details the input data for this dialog box.
Graph Opens a graph window plotting the depth-width curve defined by the points in the table

The table contains the following columns:

Column Description
Elevation (Relative) Lets you define the depth of the curve point.
Width Lets you define the width of the conduit at a specific depth.

Irregular Channel

The Irregular Channel dialog box contains buttons and a station vs. elevation table. The dialog box contains the following controls:

     
New This button creates a new row in the table.
Delete This button deletes the currently highlighted row from the table.

Help Opens the online help.

The table contains the following columns:

Column Description
Station Allows you to select whether the associated values define the Left Bank, Right Bank, or the Main Channel.
Elevation (Relative) Allows you to define the depth at which the Manning's n you define will be applied.

Elevation-Roughness Data Dialog Box

The Elevation-Roughness dialog box contains buttons and a elevation-roughness table. The dialog box contains the following controls:

     
New This button creates a new row in the table.
Delete This button deletes the currently highlighted row from the table.

The table contains the following columns:

Column Description
Channel Bank Location Allows you to select whether the associated values define the Left Bank, Right Bank, or the Main Channel.
