New Release of Bentley’s SewerCAD

SewerCAD V8 XM Edition is a powerful tool for sewer design and rehabilitation. SewerCAD V8 XM provides innovative modeling tools featuring an easy-to-use interface and advanced capabilities that enable engineers from municipalities, utilities, and consulting firms to get the most value from their capital improvement funds. The new tools help engineers cost-effectively evaluate capacity, size industrial pipes, select pumps, and identify the locations of potential overflows, and are particularly well suited for systems that are a mix of gravity and pressure flow.

Included in SewerCAD V8 XM’s many new capabilities are advanced thematic mapping, configurable element symbology, and improved utilities that allow users to quickly convert and integrate data from CAD, GIS, and other data stores. The latter means that users do not have to recreate existing CAD or GIS data, saving them substantial time on complex projects and enhancing their ability to support owner-operators using a variety of data sources.

New features in SewerCAD V8 XM include:

* Air cocks at high points in force mains
* TRex for automated ground elevation data assignment
* Tractive stress calculations
* Active topology
* Interpolating properties between elements
* Accurate variable speed pump analysis
* Improved graphing of dynamic results
* Engineering industrial profiles in DXF
* Network navigator
* Ability to import StormCAD and SewerGEMS models
* System head curves
* Easier creation of controls
* Complex manifolded pump stations/force mains
* Great numerical stability/performance
* Enhanced graphical user interface featuring dynamic zooming, named views library, and dockable windows
* AutoCAD 2009 support
