Stormwater Drainage Design Fundamentals (Episode 1): Project Preparation - Training Webinar Series


Summary

The webinar series introduces 12D training, focused on enhancing users' skills and showcasing the capabilities of 12D products like Model 14, with a specific emphasis on stormwater drainage. The presenter Owen, with expertise in civil and mining industries, delves into creating construction-ready drainage models by setting up super tins, surveys, plan views, section views, and 3D perspectives. The importance of understanding surface drainage, analyzing land lay, and using tools to identify overland flow channels for effective drainage design is highlighted. Additionally, viewers are guided on organizing workspaces, setting up toolbars, planning inlet placements, and customizing water string defaults for precise water modeling.
