Straightforward storm sewer design
In challenging times, budgets for infrastructure projects are tight. OpenFlows StormCAD helps you be as effective as possible on storm sewer development projects.
What is OpenFlows StormCAD?
OpenFlows StormCAD provides roadway and site designers, stormwater master planners, and land developers like you with advanced tools to effectively deliver high quality design with minimized capital investments. It offers a complete approach to storm sewer design and analysis, from rainfall to outlet.
- Deliver High-Quality Design

High-Quality Storm Sewer System Designs
Streamline Model Building and Management
Use the rational method to calculate peak flows, or leverage gradually varied flow hydraulics.
Effortless Storm Sewer Design
Design gravity piping and structures to automatically determine cost-effective pipe sizes. Invert elevations while minimizing pipe cover to avoid unnecessary pipe trench excavation.
Design Stormwater Systems
Minimize capital investments by simply entering your design restrictions: velocities, slopes, cover depths, and pipe and inlet matching offsets. Find out the most cost-effective pipe sizes and invert elevations.
- Improve Design Productivity
-
Intuitive Storm Sewer Design and Analysis
Allocate and Estimate Stormwater Loads
Load models with wet weather runoff flows derived from Hydro-35 or intensity-duration-frequency rainfall events. Runoff flows are computed using the Rational Method.
Analyze Inlet Capacities
Calculate stormwater runoff that will enter an inlet or be carried downstream into gutter or pond.
Design and Analyze Culverts
Select from a library of standard culvert shapes, materials, and entrance conditions. Then compute culvert headwater and tailwater elevations using calculation methodologies outlined in hydraulic design series.
