exercise 4.6: edit Pipelines and Pipeline
Connectors
In this exercise you will adjust the rotation and location of two of the inlets so that
they align with the curb. You will also adjust their elevations so that they match
the design elevation of the road. You will then edit the outfall at the pond so that
it is closer to the edge of the water and at an elevation just above the water level.
If you are continuing from the previous exercise, you can skip to step 3.
Otherwise, if you haven't already done so, go to the topic's web page at www
.sybex.com/go/infraworksessentials and download the files for Chapter 4.
Unzip the files to the correct location on your hard drive according to the
instructions in the introduction.
