Slab Drainage

[alfresco]

I have a know elevation at at corner of a structure which will be my maximum elevation.  I want to calculate the elevation of a drain in an adjacent parking area.  If I am specifying a 2% grade can vectorworks calculate the drain height?

 

thanks

Does the grade tool not work for you?

Perhaps I am trying an inappropriate short cut.  I have a know elevation at the proposed building.  I want the slope to fall away from the point.   I want to show drain locations and thought that perhaps I could use the slab drain tool to calculate the elevation of the drain given a specified slope percentage?   Perhaps I am not thing ing this through!  I do not have a site model and have limited data, but really this is just a parking lot with a simple drain configuration,

 

 

thanks,
