This technology bridges the gap between hydraulic design and the development of deliverable construction drawings, so that designers and drafters no longer have to duplicate system data. Alternatively, information from a network created in AutoCAD LDDT/CD, including elevation data from a TIN or DTM, can be brought into Haestad Methods' software for hydraulic analysis and design. Hydraulic information organized using Haestad Methods' FlexTables can also be exported for reporting purposes. Civil engineers using Haestad's software for their hydraulic and hydrology analysis and design needs now are able to automate the exchange of information with AutoCAD Land Development Desktop and its Autodesk Civil Design add-on software data formats (LDDT/CD).Ī network layout created in a Haestad Methods application can be exported to AutoCAD LDDT/CD for the creation of final construction drawings. Haestad Methods' partnership with Autodesk was initiated by customer demand to share data across both companies' software products.

The seminars will aid design professionals in learning to maximize their efficiency in completing projects by using this new technology. At these seminars Haestad will be giving out free, comprehensive product demos on CD, with interactive multimedia tutorials. Haestad Methods has incorporated features into the latest versions of their Autodesk ObjectARX-based software products that provide access to the Central Project Database of Autodesk's AutoCAD Land Development Desktop software, resulting in complete, integrated design solutions for civil engineers.Īcross North America, over 270 Autodesk Authorized Resellers will be conducting seminars to present new AutoCAD Land Development Desktop R2 solutions, including Autodesk Civil Design and Haestad Methods' hydrology and hydraulics products. The software programs StormCAD, WaterCAD/Cybernet and SewerCAD now are designed to work together with Autodesk's AutoCAD Land Development Desktop (LDDT) to provide hydrology and hydraulics solutions that leverage new technology efforts by both companies.
