    WWHM

    As Hydrae mentioned it is a model for Western Washington. It was developed for the Department of Ecology is currently maintained by Clear Creek Solutions. It is a GUI for HSPF with precalibrated variables based on project location. If you developed a HSPF model with the same calibration data...

    Batch Open Save Command File

    cad101, Thanks for your help. The script you provided worked, but I modified the last command for my own preference. I also had to enable Automatically Save Design under the Workspace>Preferences>Operation menu. Thanks again!

    Batch Open Save Command File

    I need help developing an open save command file for MicroStation. We have macros for that update our titleblock information via Excel everytime we open a sheet file. So when we update the spreadsheet each drawing needs to be opened (the macro will automatically run) and then saved for the...

    WWHM is a continuous hydrologic model developed for Western Washington that utilizes the HSPF engine. In WWHM you can change parameters from the general parameters developed for Western Washington, however you cannot change the rainfall data. When you run WWHM you have to load the county data...

    Steep Slope Stormwater Conveyance Ideas

    BLT, Thanks for the ideas. We are fortunate that we can convey bridge runoff to the approach as gutter flow without using drains on the span. Also we don't have to detain the stormwater because we can directly discharge to the Elwha River. But I still have to convey the stormwater down to...

    Slotted Gate/Narrow Channel?

    Reply to: RWF7437 Thanks for your reply. There was a rating curve developed for this control structure in the 80's, but the city doesn't think it is valid. I believe the city is hoping that there has been some research with something similar and we can take that equation and apply it to this...

    Slotted Gate/Narrow Channel?

    I'm trying to develop a rating curve for an existing control structure that has a slotted gate like opening and I'm looking for advice on what flow equation to use. Here is what the control structure entails; it is 17-feet across the front as the stream flows through the trash rack. The trash...
