I would keep the doors that you have (again, it's that lazy, and cheap, thing that I have going on) and tweak the IKEA unit. Since you have gone to the trouble of purchasing the IKEA unit and put it together, and get it in your closet (a LOT of work, no doubt) I would be inclined to keep the IKEA unit.

I am lazier than lazy can be so take my suggestions with a grain of salt. If you are looking for a quick fix, it would be better to have soil that grades away from your foundation and be technically to close to your siding than to have a negative grade and water infiltrating your basement or crawl space. It is common to see what you are suggesting with regards to putting a window well to allow you to raise the soil at the house and often this can be a good compromise and in some cases is very difficult to avoid. If you are essentially flat or going up hill from the edge of your house, you may have to dig down at that 5' mark (or further depending on a myriad of factors (yard size, landscape design, etc) and put in a small retaining wall that will allow you to get the correct grade away from the house. Typically, code/inspectors are looking for a minimum of 5% grade for the first 5' with a 2% thereafter. Hopefully this gets you on the right path.It appears the soil is already higher than would typically be allowed by code at the house (generally 6" clearance from soil top to bottom of siding material). Unfortunately, the best constraints/design is subjective, so there isn't a specific list of steps I can provide for your model.

There are branches along that profile that have constraints that will restrict the design.

Because of these drops, the minimum slope and the constrained node inverts, the profile drops too low requiring a conduit with an adverse slope to make up the difference. If there are 10 pipes in a profile then this setting will drop the profile an additional foot. Because of this field the profile drops an additional 0.1ft at each node. The node design constraint Matchline Offset is limiting the design. Here are some of the settings in your design that you might want to take a look at.Įven when the minimum available conduit slope is used for the design, the invert elevations fall too low toward the outfall to prevent conduits with adverse slopes. Order of automated design priorities for StormCAD (GVF-Rational) and SewerCAD (GVF-Convex) I recommend looking through the articles below for a better understanding of how the automated design and the constraint priorities work. There are multiple settings that affect the adverse slopes that result from the design. The negative slopes that remain after making the above changes are due to not being able to satisfy all constraints. Set the following properties for conduit "CO-73". User Notification: "Conduit material is not selected and the conduit will not be designed"Ĭonduit "CO-73" does not have a material assigned, and conduit type is set to user defined conduit.

Determine if the design constraints should be adjusted (globally or for the individual element) and adjust them accordingly.

You could do this by looking at user notifications, element symbology, FlexTables, or individual element properties.

Look for areas in the model that violate design constraints.

Make sure all element properties and constraints are correct and reasonable.I took a look at your model and here are my notes:
