Elevation vs. Area
This approach is common for outdoor ponds. The Elevation vs. Area table represents the grading plan contour information for the pond. The area column represents the water surface area with respect to the corresponding water surface elevation on the same row in the table. Bentley StormCAD CONNECT will calculate the cumulative volume at each given elevation, based on the given Elevation vs. Area data.
Pond Elevation vs. Area
| Elevation (ft) | Area (ac) | Percent Void Space (%) |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | 0 | 100 |
| 1 | 0.003 | 100 |
| 2 | 0.008 | 100 |
| 3 | 0.016 | 100 |
| 4 | 0.024 | 100 |
| 5 | 0.034 | 100 |
| 6 | 0.044 | 100 |
| 7 | 0.056 | 100 |
| 8 | 0.068 | 100 |
| 9 | 0.081 | 100 |
| 10 | 0.095 | 100 |
