One of the most difficult and time-consuming aspects of detention pond design is managing the sequence of steps required to take a pond from blank page to final design.
PondPack's PondMaker guides you through the confusing maze of pond design steps by providing a step-by-step process that gives you constant feedback on how your design is progressing.
- Set maximum outflow rate: You can explicitly set the allowable pond outflow rate, or let PondMaker automatically apply pre-developed conditions for multiple storm events.
- Estimate storage: Know the size of your pond before laying out the first grading plan. PondMaker leverages PondPack's precision estimate tools to establish the maximum storage requirements.
- Check outlet design: PondMaker greatly reduces design iterations by automatically computing a target rating curve based on storage requirements, grading plan data, and allowable outflow rates for multiple return events
- Check final design: PondMaker processes full routing results to report maximum outflow, storage, water surface elevation, and freeboard for multiple design events.
