Autodesk Civil 3D uses the bsn file extension for data related to TR-55 detention basin storage calculations. TR-55 is a method for analyzing runoff and detention basin behavior, and this file contains the associated basin storage data.
The file is binary application data rather than a general-purpose, human-readable document. It belongs to the Civil 3D hydrology and drainage workflow and is intended to be used by Autodesk Civil 3D on the platforms supported by that software.
Open the file through the relevant detention basin or TR-55 workflow in Autodesk Civil 3D. The binary contents are not intended to be edited directly in a text editor or opened as a standalone document.
Files with the .bsn extension cannot be converted. The data is intended to be used in Autodesk Civil 3D.
