STORMWATER NETWORK DESIGN SOFTWARE
Drawing / Modelling / Planning / Design / Analyze

 

Since 1985, AnkiSOFT Software developes software to design infrastructure projects. yasuCAD has been developed for stormwater network design. It is for Drawing / Modelling / Planning / Design / Analyze the stormwater network. The software works under AutoCAD or ZWCAD.

DRAWING the NETWORK

It is possible to arrange the drawing style by using STYLE MANAGER, so you can use different drawing style in different projects.

OPEN LAYER command can open all the necessary layers that the software needs.

You can define/draw/edit/delete/move manholes (MH), can change some/all properties of MHs. The software will write; MHno and the ground elevation for each MH on the drawing.

You can find any MH by searching the MHno, can change the location of MHno, can renumber some/all MHnos from a specified number.

You can define/draw/edit/delete pipes, can change the direction of pipes, can change some/all properties of pipes. The software will write; start-invert-elevation, diameter, length, slope and end-invert-elevation for each pipe on the drawing.

You can define/draw/edit/delete/move catchment area, you can change connected MH. You can define/delete concentrated catchment area. You can define/delete grid.

You can show depths, discharge and fullness ratio of all pipes on the drawing.

ERROR CHECKING

You can check weather there is any mistake in the network model. You can find and you can correct them.

Such as; same MHnos, 1st-phase – 2nd-phase – existing pipe connections, pipe connections from/to MHs, pipes going from lower elevation to higher elevation.

DESIGN CRITERION

You can define;

Allowable minimum elevation difference for pipes.
Allowable minimum water drop head depth
Pipes can have circular cross-section or rectangular cross-section (box).
For each Type-DIAMETER; type-name, material (concrete, reinforced concrete, PVC, ACB, Steel, HDPE, Ribloc, …), inner diameter, allowable minimum slope, allowable maximum slope, allowable maximum fullness ratio, design formula (Kutter, Manning, …), “a” or “n” values (roughness ratio) for the formula.

HYDRAULIC DESIGN

During design works; all the information on the drawing will be send to calculation, the calculation software will do hydraulic calculations, then all the calculated information will be send back to the drawing to show the final situation.

You can repeat this process, until you reached to the situation that you want.

DESIGN CALCULATION TABLES

Hydraulic calculations are in the form of tables and recorded in a text file.

MHno at the start
MHno at the end
Phase number
Discharge zone number
Pipe length
Drainage area
Runoff coefficient
Relative area
Total relative area
Concentration time
Rainfall intensity
Qdesign
Slope
Selected diameter
Velocity
Flow time
Water depth
Fullness ratio
Capacity at %100 fullness
Ground elevation at the start
Ground elevation at the end
Inner-top elevation of pipe at the start
Inner-top elevation of pipe at the end
Inner-bottom elevation of pipe at the start
Inner-bottom elevation of pipe at the end
Inner-bottom depth of pipe at the start
Inner-bottom depth of pipe at the end

Next table contains; pipe lengths according to pipe diameter and phase of pipe.

The last table contains; excavation amounts according to excavation depth and phase of pipe.

GENERAL LAYOUT PLAN (1/5000)

The software will show collector pipes and MHs automatically. Also, you can decide for other pipes/MHs to show on general layout plan.

Then, you can prepare general layout plan in a very short time.

PROFILE DRAWING

Now, everything is ready after design works. So, it is easy for you to prepare the profile.

The only thing that you have to do is; to decide the phase (1st-phase/2nd-phase/existing).

After writing vertical and horizontal scale, you can prepare the profile by the use of only one command.

By the use of profile software;

You can draw profile without any length limit at one time.
The drawing-height is set to 297 mm.
To be able to draw the profile within the drawing-height, reference elevations will be arranged automatically.
The information on the profile are;

Pipe depth
Reference elevation
MHnos for connected pipes
MHno
Ground elevation
Inner-bottom elevation of pipe
Pipe length
Slope (1/a)
Pipe diameter/box sizes

There will be an empty place on the right side of the drawing for legend.
There will be a border line for the drawing, also another border line for cutting.
The output is in DXF file format.

INFORMATION TRANSFER

You can transfer easily all the network information to another drawing/computer, or vice versa.

GENERAL

There is no limit to the number of MHs and pipes.
There is no limit to the number of pipe diameters and pipe materials.
It is possible to have more than one network on the same drawing. There is no limit to the number of networks.
It is possible to define different discharge zones.
It is possible to define 1st-phase, 2nd-phase and existing pipe.
During design works; it is possible to change pipe diameter, start/end elevation of pipes.
During design works; the software can show the logical mistakes of the network to the user to correct them.
During design works; if a pipe exceeds the hydraulic/design criterion, the software informs the user.
At the end of the hydraulic calculation, software will supply excavation amounts and pipe lengths.
The software can renumber MH numbers automatically.
The software can transfer the MH information to topographic work, and can get back those changed information from topographic works (by using a text file).
The software can prepare the deepness-map for geological work.
All calculations are in a text file, in the form of tables. You can open, you can copy, you can print directly at any time.
You can print the above text files by using an A4-printer with the help of our software commands too.
You can use our software commands with AutoCAD or ZWCAD commands too.
