Defining Profile Results for HEC-RAS Bridge Modeling

In GeoHECRAS, the Profile Results data panel of the Bridge & Culvert Data dialog box allows the user to select the analysis results. This article describes how to use the Profile Results data panel.

Follow the steps below to use the Profile Results data panel:

Select the Profile Results option from the Roadway Crossing Specifications dropdown combo box of the Bridge & Culvert Data dialog box.
The Profile Results data panel will be displayed.

The following sections describe how to interact with the Profile Results data panel of the Bridge & Culvert Data dialog box.

Profile Results

This section of the data panel lists all of the analyzed roadway crossings profiles, allowing the user to specify which profiles to display results for.

The table contains the following entries:

Profile: This read-only column shows the profile name.
Water Surface: This column shows a checkbox that controls the display of computed water surface on the cross section geometry. This checkbox is not checked by default.
Energy Grade: This column shows a checkbox that controls the display of computed energy grade line on the cross section geometry. This checkbox is not checked by default.

The Filled-in water surface checkbox causes the selected water surface to be filled-in on the cross section geometry. If more than one profile is selected that has the Water Surface checkbox option selected, then the lowest water surface elevation is used for filling in.

Other Options

In this section of the data panel, the checkbox options are left unchecked, and the user can check the checkboxes to apply the desired options on the cross section geometry. This section contains the following checkbox options:
