blockage
Applying pipe blockage is a standard required in Australia and the functionality in ICM to do this is not user friendly (using blockage links). A simple % pipe blockage in the conduit properties should really be an option. This is particular the case for cross drainage and also orifice and pipes leaving detention basins (where a pit isnt used)

This needs to go a step further. Most Councils and AusRoads require a pit blockage factor. In other words, what percentage of the approach flow can actually be captured? I know this can be determined when creating the capture curves, but since different Councils require different blockages, it would take away the need to have a separate collection of pits for each council.

Hi Adam, would you be able to use the conduit "sediment depth" parameter to approximate the blockage?

Ability to add them into ICMLive too, without having to create a model and manifest. I believe the clean side does something similar for pipe bursts.
