Innovyze InfoMaster Receives Third Prestigious NASSCO Certification
Software’s Full PACP, MACP and LACP Certifications Reflect Company’s Commitment to Superlative Assessment and Rehabilitation of Underground Utilities
Broomfield, Colorado, USA, June 25, 2013 — Innovyze, a leading global innovator of business analytics software and technologies for smart wet infrastructure, today announced that its industry-leading asset integrity management and capital planning software, InfoMaster, has received V6.0 Certification in the Lateral Assessment and Certification Program (LACP) of the National Association of Sewer Service Companies (NASSCO). InfoMaster had recently been awarded Pipeline Assessment and Certification Program (PACP) and Manhole Assessment and Certification Program (MACP) certifications.
NASSCO was formed in 1976 with one goal: To improve the success rate of everyone involved in the pipeline rehabilitation industry through education, technical resources, and industry advocacy. The organization is comprised of contractors, suppliers, engineers, public agencies, and others aligned with the trenchless technology field. Members are required to comprehend the quality and safety issues of dealing with rehabilitated pipelines and are active in developing guidelines and specifications that become industry standards. Further information can be found at www.nassco.org.
Recognized as the industry standard in the United States since 2001, the Association’s PACP is the standard by which sewer pipes are evaluated, coded and managed. It is based on a comprehensive and consistent set of CCTV inspection codes that describe pipe conditions used in prioritizing, planning, and renovating wastewater collection systems. Complementing PACP, MACP provides standardization for grading defects within manholes and LACP for recording defects in sewer laterals.
“We are pleased to add the LACP certification to Innovyze InfoMaster ” stated Heather Myers, Operations Manager for NASSCO. “With this third certification, the software has succeeded in meeting all our stringent certification criteria for sewer asset management.”
“Receiving PACP, MACP and LACP certification from NASSCO further underlines the superior quality, utility and value of our industry-leading smart asset management solutions,” said Paul F. Boulos, Ph.D., BCEEM, Hon.D.WRE, Dist.D.NE, F.ASCE, President, COO and Chief Technical Officer of Innovyze. “Being recognized as a NASSCO certified member is extremely important to us because our company holds itself to a higher technology standard. We regularly take a critical look at our products to improve the results they deliver to our customers and help them more effectively sustain their wet infrastructures and protect the environment and public health.”

Orifice and Weir flow calculations

Note: Orifice and Weir Flow Computations The orifice flow calculation proceeds as follows: 1. Initially and whenever the setting (i.e., the fraction opened) changes, flow coefficients for both orifice and weir behavior are computed as follows: a. For side orifices: Define Hcrit = h/2 where h is the opening height. b. For bottom orifices: i. For a circular orifice, compute area over length (i.e., circumference) as AL = h /4. ii. For a rectangular orifice compute AL = h*w/(2*(h+w)) where w is the opening width. iii. Compute Hcrit = Cd*AL/0.414 where Cd is the orifice discharge coefficient. At step 1b, the critical head for the bottom orifice, where orifice flow turns into weir flow, is found by equating the result of the orifice equation to that of the weir equation Cd*Area*sqrt(2g)*sqrt(Hcrit) = Cw*Length*sqrt(Hcrit)*Hcrit or Hcrit = (Cd * Area) / (Cw/sqrt(2g) * Length) The value of Cw/sqrt(2g) for a sharp crested weir is 0.414.

EMC Washoff in SWMM5

Image
There are four steps to using EMC concentrations in your network: 1. Define your pollutant by adding a pollutant using the Data=>Quality=>Pollutant command : 2. Define the Land Use by using the Data=>Land Uses command or the Land Use Editor: 3. Define Buildup to be None by clicking on the None Tab: 4. Define the EMC Washoff concentration by clicking on the Washoff Tab: This is where you would add a GW concentration More: http://www.swmm2000.com/
