Channel-Physical: Control Structure

Channel-Control Structure Attributes

Attribute Description
Start Control Structure Type Lets you choose whether to use an Inline or Side Start Control Structure for the selected conduit. Inline start control structures are used for inline flow regulation while side start control structures are used for flow diversion. A side control is applied to control structures which generally divert flow at higher levels and an inline structure is applied to the primary flow direction.
Flap Gate? Lets you choose whether or not the highlighted element has a flap gate. If this is set to True , and icon displays at the stop-end of the conduit to display the presence of the structure. If this is set to True and you design control structures without flap gates selected, the flap gate check box will be turned on for your control structures and a message displayed.
Has Start/Stop Control Structure? Lets you define whether or not the currently highlighted element has a control structure, and if so, which type. The value chosen here affects the availability of the other fields. If this is set to True , an icon displays at the start/stop-end of the conduit to display the presence of the structure.
Start/Stop Control Structure Lets you design a start and/or stop control structure, or choose a preexisting one. Click the Ellipsis (…) button to open the Conduit Control Structure dialog box to set up the control structure you want to use.
