3. Subsurface Utilities Design and Analysis • Unifies Bentley’s various drainage and utilities capabilities blending Civil and Haestad product line functionality. • Single technology integrating civilgeometric modeling and Haestad hydraulic modeling • Upgrade for existing civil utility products (GEOPAK Drainage and Water/Sewer, InRoads Storm & Sanitary, MX Drainage.)

4. Subsurface Utilities Design and Analysis • Consumes civil design artifacts • Geometry • Terrain Models • Corridors • Provides 2D and 3D design and analysis tools for all underground utilities. • Storm Drainage • Sanitary Sewer • Force Main • Waterlines • Ducts, Pipes and cables

5. Subsurface Utilities Design and Analysis • Uses the Civil interface and geometric data store technology. • Heads up and Interactive interface. • Full DGN integration of Utility feature objects • Dynamically updateable model • Preserve Design Intent

6. Subsurface Utilities Design and Analysis • Consolidate on Haestad H&H Analysis engine: • Industry standard with more than 25 years behind simulation engines • Engines for storm, water, sanitary, gas • Conventional design with advanced dynamic wave and transient analysis • Well rationalized and open data models with enterprise data exchange built-in • Customizable and extensive • Feature rich application framework for mapping, modeling, and simulation

7. Subsurface Utilities Design and Analysis • As noted above, the Haestad analytic engine is 2nd to none, but… • Many people would prefer a more spatially oriented toolset. • Spatially correct layout is imperative as we move more and more towards full 3D modeling.

8. Subsurface Utilities Design and Analysis • Consolidate utility civil technology toolset into a unified codebase. • Native integration with MicroStation: • Leverage integration with Bentley Map, Civil products and other Bentley products. • Improve user experience for civil project design involving a complete range of subsurface utility commodities. • Integrated analytics with no data-exchange protocols or cumbersome external application synchronizations

9. Feature Based Design • Like Civil, SUDA will use feature definitions to control symbology and drive engineering processes. • Unlike Civil, this will not be a phased evolution where native libraries are preserved for a time. • Instead, there will be an import tool which “converts” from native files to new feature definition libraries. • SUDA Feature Definitions: • Nodes • Conduits • Catchments

10. Planning For the Future • Subsurface Utilities will eventually replace Civil utilities toolsets (GEOPAK Drainage, MX Drainage and InRoads S&S) • In short term, SUDA may coexist with Civil utilities tools. • Subsurface Utilities will be included in Civil installation and provide core basic functionality. • Where “advanced” hydraulic design needs exist then a smaller number of “advanced” licenses can be maintained. • The boundary between basic and advanced has not yet been determined. • “Advanced” licenses include Civil Storm, Water CAD, Water GEMS and Sewer GEMS.
