Introduction

It is crucial for a reliable calculation of the 3D pipeline network, that you have entered valid data into all the corresponding altitude/depth fields of the section and node category:

• Pipe depth in the upstream manhole (from cover to pipe bottom) (SECTION.OBJ_FromNodeDepth)

• Pipe bottom altitude (above sea level) in the upstream manhole (SECTION.OBJ_FromNodeInvert)

• Pipe depth in the downstream manhole (from cover to pipe bottom) (SECTION.OBJ_ToNodeDepth)

• Pipe bottom altitude (above sea level) in the downstream manhole (SECTION.OBJ_ToNodeInvert)

• Manhole cover altitude above sea level (Z-Coordinate) (NODE.OBJ_Shape_WKT_Z)

• Depth of the upstream/downstream manhole (from cover to bottom) (NODE.OBJ_DepthToInvert)

• Bottom altitude above sea level of the upstream/downstream manhole (NODE.OBJ_NodeInvert)

The sketch below illustrates the meaning of these fields:

Legend:

Green = values to be provided by engineers/water authorities

Brown = values to be measured by the operator or provided by engineers/water authorities

Blue = values to be measured by the operator

Red = values calculated by WinCanVX hitting the button Tools > Calculate Invert Levels
