info drainage has the capacity to
00:05
accommodate standards for units and rainfall studies
00:08
from around the world.
00:10
You can configure the project units and rainfall theory options
00:13
for your local requirements.
00:16
This example shows a simple pipe design that was configured for the U. K.
00:21
In the plan view,
00:22
click any pipe
00:24
in the connections dialog.
00:25
You can see that the units are set to metric for these pipes.
00:29
Close the dialog
00:31
on the ribbon, click the rainfall pollutants tab
00:35
in the design storms panel, you can see that the UK specific F. S.
00:39
R and F E, A train fall event types are available
00:43
to control the region and units for the project. Click file
00:47
preferences
00:49
in the preferences dialog, click the regionalization tab
00:53
to change the units, expand the units drop down and select your country.
00:58
For example, click United States and then click the X to close the dialog
01:04
now click the same pipe as before
01:06
and this time in the connections dialog, the units are set to imperial feet,
01:12
click cancel
01:14
if you want to have more control over the units.
01:17
Open the preferences dialog again,
01:19
Keep United States selected in the units drop down
01:22
and click edit
01:25
the units dialog opens where you can change a wide variety of units
01:30
notice however, that the various units are dimmed and not available
01:35
to activate them,
01:36
expand the region. Drop down and select user defined.
01:40
Now all of them become active and you can change whichever one you want
01:45
when you're finished, click the X to close and the units you chose are set.
01:50
You can also change the rainfall event type in the preferences dialog,
01:55
expand the region. Drop down and select United States
01:60
as soon as you do a warning appears telling you
02:02
that the region will be changed to global instead.
02:06
This is because the existing model contains UK specific features
02:10
in the design which in this case is the U.

K. Modified rational design method for the pipe design,
02:17
click OK,
02:19
close the preferences dialog and then click
02:22
the rainfall pollutants tab on the ribbon.
02:25
Now in the design storms panel
02:27
there are many more rainfall event types available
02:30
that are used all around the world.
02:32
You can refine this further to see only the ones for the U. S.
02:36
But first you have to change the property that was in the warning. In this case

02:43
click the preliminary sizing tab and then in
02:46
the network design panel click network design criteria
02:51
on the flow options tab,
02:52
expand the peak flow calculation drop down and select rational method,
02:58
click OK
03:00
open the preferences dialog again and click regionalization
03:05
expand the region. Drop down again
03:07
and select United States,
03:10
click close,
03:12
click the rainfall pollutants tab on the ribbon again.
03:15
Now in the design storms panel there are only two design methods available,
03:20
both of which are used in the United States
