<li>Digitise <font color="blue">2d_lfcsh_...</font> inputs using either a line or polygon feature. When applying form loss coefficients the best approach is to view the structure as a collection of 2D cells representing the whole structure, rather than being too specific about the representation of each individual cell:
* LineThin line features will apply the form loss value to a single row of cells across the waterway. The TUFLOW form loss input should be entered representing the total value (eg. FC = 0.2).
* Polygon features will distribute the form loss between multiple cells across the width of the bridge and across the waterway. Due to this, the TUFLOW form loss input should be entered as the total value per unit width in the direction of flow (eg. FC = 0.2/20m = 0.01).
