InfoDrainage | Foundations (eLearning)
Learn to design, review, and approve sustainable drainage systems (SuDS), green infrastructure, and traditional drainage systems. InfoDrainage can help you design more clearly, richly, and confidently with clarity, richness, and confidence.
Description
InfoDrainage is an advanced full design and analysis solution used to design and audit drainage systems. It delivers speedy, sustainable, cost-effective, and compliant designs with tailored reports for compliance that accelerates the building information modeling (BIM) cycle.
After completing this course, you'll be able to:
- Prepare surface models for drainage design.
- Add and connect drainage system objects to the model, developing a flow path.
- Design pipe systems to meet maximum rainfall intensities and stormwater controls to prevent overflow.
- Design for sustainable drainage systems and exceedance.
