Description

During difficult economic periods, funding for infrastructure initiatives is often limited. OpenFlows StormCAD empowers professionals involved in storm sewer project development to maximize their efficiency. This software offers advanced capabilities for roadway and site designers, stormwater master planners, and land developers, enabling them to achieve superior designs while keeping expenditures low. It allows users to load models with wet weather runoff flows sourced from Hydro-35 data or Intensity-Duration-Frequency rainfall events. The Rational Method is utilized to calculate runoff flows, providing insights into how much stormwater runoff will reach an inlet compared to how much will flow downstream in a gutter or pond on the roadway. Additionally, it enables users to rapidly verify that the flow spread in a gutter stays within acceptable design parameters. By employing these tools, professionals can navigate project challenges more effectively and deliver optimal results despite budget constraints.

Description

Create cost-effective roads, highways, and corridors by incorporating optimization software into your geometric design workflow, enabling you to produce the most economical designs swiftly. By utilizing Softree Optimal, a unique alignment optimization tool, designers can enhance both vertical and horizontal alignments. The program generates the most affordable vertical alignment by analyzing the ground surface, the initial horizontal alignment, and specific user-defined design parameters and constraints. Additionally, its new horizontal alignment optimization feature allows for further enhancements, ensuring that the design meets all necessary standards and constraints while consistently identifying the least expensive vertical alignment option. Implementing vertical optimization alone can lead to construction cost reductions of 10-30% or more, depending on the specifics of the project, while horizontal optimization can achieve impressive cost savings, often exceeding 50%. This dual approach not only streamlines the design process but also significantly contributes to overall project efficiency and sustainability.
