Slab Drainage

Building Shell |
Use the Slab Drainage tool to design drainage systems for slabs that are regularly exposed to water, such as industrial floors, concrete pavements, and flat roofs. Creating drains and valleys affects slab geometry; the process creates slopes and ridges, and potentially changes the curb height. Most of these calculations are computed automatically, but user settings and the placement of drainage elements sometimes result in errors when the geometry created is impossible.
