RoadEng Civil Engineer
RoadEng Civil Engineer is a specialized software created to streamline the design of roads, railways, pipelines, and other corridor-based infrastructure projects. Unlike traditional CAD-heavy platforms, it emphasizes engineering efficiency, terrain modeling, and earthwork optimization, making it particularly effective for greenfield, rural and public works projects where speed and cost control are critical. Its intuitive interface allows most users to begin designing without extensive training.
HydroCAD
HydroCAD combines the best of TR-20, TR-55, and SBUH, plus built-in hydraulics, graphics, automatic database, and on-screen routing diagram in a single program. (see comparison table) The result is the fastest, easiest, and most capable stormwater modeling system available. We call it HydroCAD because it brings the benefits of Computer Aided Design to hydrology, while not requiring any other CAD software. However, HydroCAD-10 now offers direct extraction of subarea data directly from AutoCAD®, without any other software.
