Re: Inline storage
You can use large cross sections to model your storage areas as the poster above says.
Or you can use storage areas. If you use storage areas, you must have a seperate reach between them.
So say you have a long reach with two storage areas/inline structures.
You would have a reach (say reach A) before the first storage area. Reach B between the two storage areas. And Reach C below the third storage area.
The downstream end of Reach A would be connected to the first storage area. The upstream end of Reach B would also be connected to the first storage area. The downstream end of REach B would connect to the second storage area. The upstream end of Reach C would connect to the third storage area.
Yes, you need two normal cross sections between the inline structure (dam) and the storage area. These should be large, dam sized cross sections. You should also have at least two cross sections below the inline structure before it goes into the next storage area.
After you have created the storage area on the geometric editor, you can drag the end of a reach (using the move object pointer) into the storage area to connect it.
Good luck.
