Abstract:

The paper presents an advanced modeling and design software application for sewage networks – SewerGEMS V8i, which allows projects to be accomplished in a short time, with high efficiency and low costs. In the design of a sewerage system the sewer network is the basic unit occurring repeatedly in the design process. Any savings during the design of this unit will affect the overall cost of the sewerage system. Bentley SewerGEMS v8i is the first and only fully-dynamic, multi-platform (GIS, CAD and Stand-Alone) sanitary and combined sewer modeling solution. With Bentley SewerGEMS v8i, you will analyze all sanitary and combined sewer system elements in one package and have the option of performing the analyses with the SWMM algorithm or our own implicit solution of the full Saint Venant equations. The hydraulic design consists in the computation of the transit and total flow and hydraulic modeling for network pipes diameters or slopes. The application provides reports, layouts, longitudinal or transversal cross sections of the pipe network, displayed in an advanced graphic system based on AutoCAD technology. With specific tools and features included, SewerGEMS V8i offers a full range of possibilities for the designer to draw, label, dimension and plotting the drawings of the sewage networks.
