LID Utilization in SWMM5 and InfoSWMM w/ Sustain

Utilizing LID controls within a project is a two phase process that:

1. creates a set of scale-independent LID controls that can be deployed throughout the study area,

2. assigns any desired mix and sizing of these controls to selected Subcatchments.

LID Placement for Controls in InfoSWMM and SWMM5 w/ InfoSWMM Sustain

There are two different approaches for placing LID controls within a Subcatchment:

• place one or more controls in an existing Subcatchment that will displace an equal amount of non-LID area from the Subcatchment
• create a new Subcatchment devoted entirely

LID Controls in InfoSWMM and InfoSWMM Sustain – Introduction

LID Controls are low impact development practices designed to capture surface runoff and provide some combination of detention, infiltration, and evapotranspiration to it. They are considered as properties of a given Subcatchment, similar to how Aquifers and Snow Packs are treated. … Read the rest

SuDS in InfoWorks ICM

In InfoWorks ICM 6.5 and later the SWMM 5 LID Controls were added to the Subcatchment Grid of ICM. Here is a copy of the ICM Help File. The LID Controls are entered in the Subcatchment Grid (1), in the SuDS or LID Tab (2), it … Read the rest

LID Usage Editor in InfoSWMM and H2OMap SWMM

The LID Usage Editor is invoked when the LID Usage Icon of a Subcatchment is selected for editing. It is used to identify a group of previously defined LID controls that will be placed within the Subcatchment, the sizing of each control, … Read the rest
