SWMM 5.2.2 Code for Defining LID data in LID.h

 This code defines several structs that are used to store information about different layers of a LID (Low Impact Development) unit. The structs define the properties of each layer, such as thickness, porosity, permeability, and other parameters that are specific to each layer.

The structs defined in this code are:

Struct Name	Description
TSurfaceLayer	Information about the surface layer of the LID unit, such as depression storage or berm height, roughness, slope, and alpha term in Manning equation.
TPavementLayer	Information about the pavement layer of the LID unit, such as thickness, void fraction, permeability, clogging factor, and regeneration interval.
TSoilLayer	Information about the soil layer of the LID unit, such as thickness, porosity, field capacity, wilting point, suction, saturated hydraulic conductivity.
TStorageLayer	Information about the storage layer of the LID unit, such as thickness, void fraction, saturated hydraulic conductivity, clogging factor and information about whether it is covered or not.
TDrainLayer	Information about the underdrain system of the LID unit, such as flow coefficient, head exponent, offset height, delay time, head when drain opens and closes, flow rate curve.
TDrainMatLayer	Information about the drainage mat layer of the LID unit, such as thickness, void fraction, roughness, slope/roughness term in Manning equation.

The fields of all the structs are double type except for the "covered" field which is of int type.

The code also defines a MAX_LAYERS macro which is set to 4. This macro is used as a constant throughout the code to specify the maximum number of layers that are allowed in the LID unit.

This way, the code defines the different layers of LID unit and the properties of each layer with the help of structs. This makes it easy to simulate and analyze the performance of LID unit by using these structs to store the information about different layers and their properties.
