Outfall Invert Level in the Centre of Storage.

We are trying to add storage off of a manhole, however don't want the IL as per the manhole or the base of storage. We have designed the soakaway 10m x 20m with a depth of 1m. We want the IL to be different to the manhole IL and have added the soa...

.pfd File Locking - 'Read Only' Status

There doesnt seem to be any 'locking' of PFD files when they're opened. Currently individuals, or multiple users, can open the same file and overright it. Clearly thats less than ideal! It also happens with SmartTools, if you export out of SmartTo...

Adding blind connections without the use of a junction chamber splitting the main run to shorter pipes

Bulk Earthworks - drainage

It's possible to set the level of the road construction to determine the amount of cut/fill required. Having the same functionality for drainage would be very useful (ideally picking up the design and levels from Flow). Variables which would be ne...
