Global Storm Events - Lets you define project-wide global storm data.

Unit Sanitary Loads - Defines unit sanitary loads in editable Engineering Libraries, allowing you to edit predefined unit sanitary loads and insert new ones.

Note: This tool is only available when SewerCAD or SewerGEMS licenses are active.

Inflow Control - The Inflow Control Center is an editor for manipulating all the inflows in your model. Using the Inflow Control Center, you can add new inflows, delete existing inflows, or modify the values for existing inflows using standard SQL select and update queries.

Note: This tool is only available when SewerCAD, CivilStorm or SewerGEMS licenses are active.

Load Center - Opens the Sanitary Load Control Center dialog.

Description

Opens the current template library to add a new template, delete or modify an existing template.

Draws the selected template from the current template library at the user-defined data point in the drawing file using the active MicroStation symbology. All end conditions are drawn and there is no annotation. The drawing is useful as a starting point for documentation of the template library.

Edit Template Drop

Opens the current template library and displays the template with the selected template drop.

Apply Linear Template

Accesses the Pick Template dialog then inserts the chosen template into the drawing relative to a linear element.
