    STORMCAD

    Storm sewer design and modeling


    StormCAD is a comprehensive modeling software program for the design and analysis of storm
    sewer systems. StormCAD provides calculations for catchment runoff, inlet capacity, and
    gutters and pipe network flow.
    Model in stand-alone, or within your
    favorite CAD platform
    Out of the box, StormCAD users can work within standalone and MicroStation platforms, while optional AutoCAD
    integration means that users can model within their
    favorite CAD environment. Regardless of the platform used,
    StormCAD maintains a single set of modeling files for true
    interoperability across platforms.
    The stand-alone interface offers easy-to-use model layout
    tools, multiple background support, conversion utilities from
    CAD, GIS, and databases, and unlimited undo and redo layout.

    StormCADs stand-alone, MicroStation,


    and AutoCAD platforms offer platform
    freedom and versatility.

    The MicroStation interface, included at no additional cost


    with all StormCAD versions, provides a geospatial and
    engineering design environment with unrivaled visualization and publishing tools.
    AutoCAD users can also add AutoCAD integration features
    to build, lay out and plot models with engineering precision
    within an environment they are already comfortable with.

    Enhanced workflow with stormwater-civil integration


    StormCAD can now import and export drainage data
    directly from InRoads, GEOPAK and PowerCivil for Americas,
    providing engineers and designers with a way to achieve
    an optimized workflow and better coordination between
    engineering teams.
    Intensity-Duration-Frequency (IDF)
    data can be defined using equations or
    tables, and saved for later use.

    StormCADs constraint-based design


    automatically determines diameters and
    invert elevations.

    Inlet and network hydraulics


    StormCAD determines intercepted flow at network
    inlets, and routes bypass flow to selected bypass targets.
    Inlets can be computed using the U.S. Federal Highway
    Administration (FHWA) HEC-22 methodology and users can
    chose from grate, curb, slot, ditch, and combination inlet
    types. Engineers can use a variety of methods to compute
    headloss, including HEC-22 Energy and AASHTO.
    StormCAD solves for subcritical, critical, and supercritical
    conditions with its robust gradually varied, standard-step
    algorithm. StormCAD calculates friction losses using
    Manning, Kutter, Darcy-Weisbach, and Hazen-Williams,
    and users can choose circular, box, arch, or elliptical pipe
    section shapes or irregular, trapezoidal, or triangular
    channel sections.

    Hydrology and loads allocation


    StormCAD uses the Rational Method to calculate peak
    flows in the storm sewer design, or accepts direct input of
    known flows for inlet inflows.
    StormCAD allows users to specify Intensity-DurationFrequency data using equations or tables. Modelers can
    then plot the IDF curves, and reuse their data for other
    projects in that region. Engineers can work with an unlimited number of sub-watershed areas and C coefficients for
    each inlet watershed.
    StormCAD allows the input of external contributing areas,
    additional flows, and carryover flows to model non-local
    runoff contributing to the discharge at any inlet. StormCAD
    provides several methods for computing travel time, including full pipe velocity, normal velocity, average end velocity
    and weighted average velocity.

    Automatic Design
    The constraint-based design features in StormCAD allow
    modelers to automatically design gravity piping and structures. The design is flexible enough to allow users to specify
    the elements to be designed, from a single pipe size to the
    entire system, by simply entering the appropriate design
    conditions: minimum/maximum velocities, covers and slopes;
    pipe elevation offsets (including whether or not to allow drop
    structures), maximum spread and depth for inlets in sag;
    minimum efficiency for inlets on grade.
    StormCAD will automatically determine cost-effective pipe
    sizes and invert elevations while minimizing pipe cover to
    avoid unnecessary pipe trench excavation.

    Comprehensive scenario management


    With StormCAD scenario management center, engineers
    can evaluate, visualize, and compare an unlimited number
    of what-if scenarios within a single file. Engineers can easily make decisions by comparing design approaches with
    varying velocity, slope and cover restrictions, evaluating
    system capacity for multiple storm events, or analyzing
    outlet flow using different estimations for the catchment
    Rational Coefficients.
