To define a Deposition Embankment:

•Activate the Deposition Line that will define the embankment.

•Click the Deposition Line Data Sheet.

•Click the Embankment Button.

btnDepositionEmbankment

•Enter Deposition Embankment Parameters on the Deposition Embankment Dialog:

oEmbankment Sheet:

dlgDepositionEmbankmentData

▪Generate Embankment: Generate an embankment during a Deposition Model Run.

▪Crest width: The embankment crest width.

▪Upstream Slope:

•The upstream slope is defined using a Vector Slope.

•Click the link to select a Vector Slope.

▪Downstream Slope: The embankment downstream slope.

oCrest Nodes Sheet - Define the Node spacing when generating embankments:

dlgDepositionEmbankmentNodes

▪Defined Spacing: Crest nodes are generated at the specified spacing.

▪Total Number of Nodes: The number of crest nodes along the entire deposition line.

▪Node per Segment: The specified number of crest nodes are generated in each deposition line segment i.e. between two deposition line nodes.

oElevation Sheet - Define the elevations at which embankments will be generated:

dlgDepositionEmbankmentElevations

▪Start Elevation: The first embankment elevation.

▪End Elevation: The final embankment elevation.

▪Raise Height: The vertical height increment between embankment crests.
