To add a cross-section, use the 'Add CrossSection (ZW)' tool and click anywhere on a branch. You can change the name and location (chainage) of a cross-section via the Properties window or its attribute table. In this way, a one cross-section at the beginning of the branch and one at the end of the branch.
To define the cross-section definition, double click on the cross-section. Change the cross-section to resemble the compound channel. Use the following dimensions:
Parameter Value B1 50 B2 70 h1 3.5 To use the same cross-section multiple times, you will need to share the cross-section definition. Still in the cross-section view, click 'Share this definition'. If you define a new cross-section somewhere in the model, you can now use the shared cross-section. To impose a slope, change the Level Shift. By imposing a Level Shift, the cross-section definition is uniformly lowered or heightened.
Info The ZW profile is per definition symmetrical. Note that other types of cross-section exists as well, viz. 'YZ' and 'XYZ', that can be assymetrical as well. However, only ZW profiles can be used in combination with morphology. - To impose a slope, change the Level Shift. By imposing a Level Shift, the cross-section definition is uniformly lowered or heightened.
To see if your model is set-up like you want it, let's take a longitudinal look. To do this, create a route using the 'Add route' tool in Ribbon/map/network.Create a slope by defining two cross-sections one at
