Reach Table Edit Command

The Reach Table Edit command allows the user to edit the reach parameters in one dialog box for common hydrology routing methods. When the user selects this command, a modeless dialog box will be displayed. This dialog box contains an editable data grid listing all the reaches in the current scenario. When the user selects a row in the data grid, the corresponding reach will be zoomed to the Map View (if not visible) and highlighted. In addition, the user can select a reach from the Map View, and the corresponding row in the data grid will be shown selected.

Follow the steps below to use the Reach Table Edit command:

1. From the Input ribbon menu, click the Routing Reaches dropdown menu and then select the Reach Table Edit command.
   
2. The Reach Table Edit dialog box will be displayed.
   

The following sections describe how to use the Reach Table Edit command and interact with the above dialog box.

Reach Parameters

The Reach Parameters section will display the editable data grid columns listing the reach parameters contained in the current scenario. Based upon the selected routing method in the Project Options backstage page, as shown below, the data grid columns listing will be changed.

The user can select the following routing methods from the Project Options backstage page and the associated parameters will be listed in the data grid of the Reach Table Edit command.

Method Name	Data Grid Column Name
Kinematic Wave Muskingum Cunge Normal Depth	Reach ID Length (ft) Channel Slope (ft/ft) Downstream Invert Elevation (ft) Element Shape Index Discharge (cfs) Manning’s Roughness Maximum Outflow (cfs) Maximum Inflow (cfs) Peak Flow Velocity (ft/s) Peak Stage (ft)
Lag Time Lag Time & Attenuation Muskingum Modified Puls Straddle Stagger	Reach ID Length (ft) Channel Slope (ft/ft) Downstream Invert Elevation (ft) Inflow Lag Time (minutes) Outflow Attenuation Duration (minutes) Reach Travel Time (minutes) Maximum Outflow (cfs) Maximum Inflow (cfs) Peak Flow Velocity (ft/s) Peak Stage (ft)
