Drainage Outlet

Place the discharge point for a drainage network from the Water tab, and set its type to soakaway, boundary outfall, or storm sewer.

Drainage OutletDrainage Outlet

An Outlet Point marks the intended end of a drainage route. Its type describes the proposed discharge arrangement; selecting a type does not assess infiltration capacity or approve a discharge.

1

Place the object

Open the Water Add panel and expand Conveyance & Discharge. Choose Outlet Point, then click its position on the plan. The tool guide also provides Name and Position entry. Press Esc to stop placement.

2

Edit its properties

Choose Outlet Type → Soakaway, Boundary Outfall or Storm Sewer. Fixture Style offers Pipe End, Headwall and Pop-up Emitter. Draw the intended drain route separately.

3

Position and identify it

Use General → Name to identify the object and Location for its position. Length fields follow metric or imperial project settings. Locked objects cannot be edited until unlocked. Changes use drawing history.

4

Document the route

Draw the appropriate irrigation or drainage pipe route to show the intended arrangement. A nearby symbol alone is not proof of a working connection or a hydraulic calculation. The water tools document a schematic plan; they do not simulate real pressure or flow.
