*How to model chambers <br>
=Introduction=
Manholes are used at culvert junctions to dissipate energy due to: <br>
*Expansion/contraction of flow within the manhole chamber and outlet culverts.
*Change in direction of the culverts (i.e. a bend/deflection).
*Change in height, width or diameter and/or invert level of the adjoining culverts. <br>
The presence of a manhole at a junction point will override the exit loss of any culvert discharging into the manhole and entrance loss of any culvert taking from our of the manhole. <br>
There are 3 types of manholes:
*"C" for circular chambers.
*"R" for rectangular chambers.
*"J" for junctions without a chamber
