In this WaterCAD walkthrough, a Professional Engineer demonstrates the essentials of using active topology to create a master plan and Phase 1 for a residential neighborhood's water distribution system.
Key Highlights:
Scenario vs. Alternative: A Scenario is a cheeseburger while Alternatives are the toppings of the cheeseburger. Build your cheeseburger to better understand your pressure network in different situations (phased models, different pressure assumptions, or demand assumptions)
Typical Alternative "Toppings"
- Active Topology (on or off)
- Physical (pressures, sizes, elevations, physical parameters)
- Demand (peak vs. average daily flow)
