Bentley Software Application Incorporates Cultec Storm Water Chambers

Cultec Inc. has announced that it is currently the only storm water chamber manufacturer with products included in Bentley Systems’ new PondPack V8i application for the analysis and design of detention ponds. Cultec and Bentley partnered to help PondPack V8i users design their hydraulic models with Cultec chambers faster and more efficiently.

Modelers can now employ PondPack V8i to construct complex arrays of the storage chambers, which can be further combined with other standard pond components to create a single storage unit to be used in the routing analysis.

“Cultec reached out to us with the suggestion to include its chambers in PondPack V8i. We agreed that this additional capability will make work easier for our users who include Cultec chambers in their storm water management plans,” said Malcolm Sharkey, product manager, storm water products, at Bentley.

PondPack V8i's engineering libraries contain the parameters of all the company's chamber models, including the Contactor and Recharger series. The Storage Chamber Library allows users to manage pre-entered chambers as well as to customize them in their hydraulic models.

In addition to the chambers, the application features an enhanced graphical user interface, new support for CAD platforms and support for new hydraulic elements.
