Sewer GEMS

 

SewerGEMS (Bentley)

 

What is SewerGEMS? 

 The acronym GEMS GEMS means: Geospatial Engineering Modeling System

Bentley SewerGEMS v8i is the frst and only ully-dynamic, multi-platorm (GIS, CAD

and

Stand-Alone)

sanitary

and

combined sewer modelling solution. With Bentley SewerGEMS v8i, you will analyze all sanitary and combined sewer system elements in one package and have the option o perorming the analyses with the SWMM algorithm or our own implicit solution o the ull Saint Venant equations.



Microstation Mode

Microstation Micro station mode lets you create and model your network directly within your primary drating environment. environment. This gives you access to all o Microstation‗s Micro station‗s drating and presentation tools, while still enabling you to perorm Bentley SewerGEMS V8i modeling tasks like editing, solving, and data management. This relationship between Bentley SewerGEMS V8i and Microstation Micro station enables extremel extremely y detailed and accurate mapping o model eatures, and provides the ull array o output and presentation eatures available in Microstation Microstation..

 



ArcGIS Mode

ArcGIS mode lets you create and model your network directly in ArcMap. Each mode provides access to diering unctionality certain capabilities that are available within ArcGIS mode may not be available when working in the Bentley SewerGEMS V8i Stand-alone Editor.. All the unctionality available in the Stand-alone Editor are, Editor however, available in ArcGIS mode.

 



AutoCAD Mode

AutoCAD mode lets you create and model your network directly within your primary drating environment. This gives you access to all o AutoCAD‘s drating and presentation tools, while still enabling you to perorm Bentley SewerGEMS V8i modeling tasks like editing, solving, and data management. This relationship between Bentley SewerGEMS V8i and AutoCAD enables extremely detailed and accurate mapping o model eatures, and provides the ull array o output and presentation eatures available in AutoCAD. This acility provides the most exibility and the highest degree o compatibility with other CAD-based applications and drawing data maintained at your organization.

 

Capabilities o SewerGEM

 



Allocate and estimate sanitary loads

Apply hydrographs, patterned patterned loads, and unit loads using a comprehensive and customizable engineering library. library. Use the LoadBuilder module to leverage consumption, ow monitoring, land use, or census data in your GIS to automatically estimate and import sanitary loads or your sewer model

 



Allocate and estimate storm water loads

Load models with wet weather runo ows derived rom precipitation precipitatio n using the built-in rainall distributions or user-defned rainall events. Runo ows are computed using the most appropriate appropria te runo method or the project

 



Analyze hydraulics and combined sewer overfows

Easily switch among multiple solvers according to the type o system you are analyzing: Saint Venant equations, convex/gradually varied ow solver (steady-state analysis or extreme ow conditions and extended period simulations), and rational/gradually varied ow solver

 



Analyze hydrogen sulde ormation

Identiy areas in your network that are at risk o damage rom hydrogen sulfde (H2S) ormation, which can lead to potential collapses i not addressed. Produce average concentration runs, display result maps o the network, and compare H2S ormation according to various conditions such as temperature.

 



Analyze inlet capacities

Calculate the proportion o stormwater runo that will enter an inlet versus the proportion that will be carried downstream in a gutter or pond on the road surace. Quickly confrm that the spread o ow in a gutter doesn't exceed design requirements.

 



Build and manage hydraulic models

 Jumpstart the model-building model-building process and and manage your model eectively so that you can ocus on making the best engineering decisions. Leverage and import many well known external data ormats, which maximizes ROI on geospatial and engineering data and automates input data generation

 



Design and analyze culverts

Select rom a library o standard culvert shapes, materials, and entrance conditions, then compute culvert headwater and tailwater elevations using calculation methodologies outlined in Hydraulic Design Series Number 5 rom the U.S. Federal Highway Administration

 



Design and analyze low impact development controls

Model the eect that low impact development controls have in retaining runo beore it enters the stormwater s tormwater system

 



Design and analyze pond and outlets

Leverage PondMaker's PondMaker's guiding process through the conusing maze o pond design steps by ollowing the step-by-step process process that provides constant eedback on how the design is progressing. Set the maximum outow rate, estimate storage, and check the outlet design and fnal design.

 



Design sanitary sewers

Minimize capital investments by simply entering your design restrictions: velocities, slopes, cover depths, and pipe and manhole matching osets. SewerCAD/SewerGEMS recommends the most cost-eective pipe sizes and invert elevations, avoiding unnecessary pipe trench excavation, while meeting design restrictions.

Simulate water quality

Simulate the generation, inow, and transportation and treatment o any number o user user-defned -defned pollutants, such as total suspended solids or heavy metals
