This 1992 publication extended the methods and information provided in Australian Rainfall and Runoff, 1987.

The methods set out in QUDM are more rigorous than those applied in most other parts of Australia. Accurate pit inlet capacity and pressure change relationships are required. DRAINS implements these methods in its Design method and in procedures implemented in 1992 that calculate pit pressure change coefficients and set out rational method results in QUDM format.

QUDM has been revised with a draft 2013 version.  The 2017 final version has been released and is available from www.ipwea-qnt.com/products-resources/qudm.
