WaterNET-CAD is an integrated, stand-alone civil engineering software program developed by Diolkos3D for designing, editing, and analyzing utility pipe networks. It bridges the gap between hydraulic calculations and professional drawing outputs by embedding calculations directly inside a rich Computer-Aided Design (CAD) interface. Core Application Modules
The software functions as an all-in-one suite to cover all design stages of multiple utility networks within the same master project:
Water Supply: Modeling and sizing of clean water distribution networks.
Sewage Drainage: Planning and routing for gravity-based wastewater systems.
Rainwater & Storm Drainage: Designing runoff facilities, catchments, and flood mitigation paths.
Vacuum Sewers: Special layout modules tailored specifically for vacuum drainage infrastructures. Key Technical Features
Built-in CAD Environment: The program runs autonomously without requiring a separate AutoCAD license. It is powered by Autodesk technology, providing full 2D/3D creation commands and native compatibility with standard .dwg and .dxf files.
Standard Hydraulic Engines: Calculations are completely integrated with the globally recognized industry-standard libraries: EPANET for pressurized water supply networks and EPA SWMM for open-channel or gravity storm/sewer systems.
Automation Tools: The platform can automatically divide complex building geometries into sub-catchment drainage basins and assign corresponding runoff load areas to the nearest pipe section.
Construction & Costing Output: It instantly generates detailed construction blueprints, profile drawings, hydraulic computation reports, and structured Bills of Quantities (BOQ) for cost estimating.
