Improved modelling, including building drainage so designs can be modelled to base of internal stacks within buildings to allow for greater collaboration between other design disciplines for general clash detection. Typically, Architects, Structur...

One page formal print out summarising the manhole, pipe and storage structure volumes within the SW network. This is often requested during planning stages of developments.

some sites we are working on have had some significant level differences, which has led to the need for retaining walls. At present Live Design tries to grade the surface between these level differences. Please can you add a feature where a retain...

Having used Flow now for the last 6 months we feel there are plenty of user interface improvements than can be made. Add the link references in the results? When a link is selected, can the corresponding link on the section be highlight with a col...

When looking at the preliminary quick storage calculations used for preliminary designs/drainage strategies, the quick storage tool is excellent up until the point you want to design soakaways as there is no option to get a quick storage calculati...

Is it feasible to look into an option for start and end of alignments that will : follow existing ground to a maximum specified gradient (we would typically not be any steeper than 1 in 25 away from the channel) This design setting will allow for ...

It seems that if a pipe has a swale upstream then the pipe uses the Manning's equations to compute flows etc, but if it has nothing upstream or a pipe upsteam then it uses the Colebrook-White equations. This means that on the same storm water syst...

We currently have an existing building which is due to be refurbished. As part of the proposed works, we are introducing an attenuation structure with a restricted discharge flow of 1 l/s. In the existing condition, surface water freely discharges...

The ability to create non-standard vehicle tracks i.e. all terrain cranes with multiple axles. Also update to the standard library.
