h3. Technical Program Outline

1) A new layer "floctank" is made using the [Layer{~}new~|AutoCAD Basics Layer] function.

2) The [Tank|AutoCAD Tank Program] program is called by floctanktankscript to draw the outside walls of the flocculation tank.

3) The inner walls are drawn as rectangles, each placed one by one to give a  uniform channel width, are drawn as iteratively.


4) The ports between channels are both drawn iteratively and are subtracted from the inner walls iteratively.

5) The inlet to the sed tank is drawn and subtracted from the outer tank.

6) The "floctank" layer is set to zero, to allow freezing.

76) The "floctank layer" is frozen using the [Layer{~}freeze~|AutoCAD Basics Layer] function.
