KCS Consultants are pleased to announce the release of the Civil Suite
2013 incorporating now the Terrain, Water, GIS, Sewer and Road design
modules.
We have placed our recent demonstration videos as
prepared for the IMESA 2013 Conference held in Port Elizabeth on
YouTube. As from this release, individual modules can now be
purchased separately. All existing CivilSuite users will automatically
have all the modules enabled on their current dongles. Watch this space
for important news on the future pricing structure of the CivilSuite.
The
original standalone Road, Sewer and Sewer Network design programs have
been around for about fifteen years, and therefore proven
themselves. They are still in use by Consulting Engineers,
Contractors and Municipalities countrywide. The
Terrain
program, which has been on the market since 2005 and has also enjoyed
great success in the marketplace. The older Roads
and Sewer
packages have now been integrated with the Terrain and in addition, the
CAD and GIS functionality has been enhanced even further. The
suite now also incorporates a Water Network Analysis module based on US
EPANet engine and a Stormwater Network Analysis module based on EPA
SWMM. We have also recently included a Photo processing module, Google
Earth functionality and a new Pipeline module for rising mains.
Not only have these programs been integrated into
one common interface but the functionality has been enhanced within
each module as well. This integrated interface not only
allows
the designer to work with his/her DWG/DXF drawing natively (without the
need for a separate CAD license), but also includes a Terrain
model capable of handling up to 21 000 000 points at unbelievable
speeds, a Sewer model which effectively does around 99% of the design
and drawing work, and a very competent and comprehensive Road,
Water and Stormwater design modules to round off the package.
The CIVIL
SUITE incorporates all of these
modules at an unbelievable price of R30 000 (South
African
Rands) excl VAT per workstation. (Typically around 3000 US$).
We are especially proud of having sold our Civil Suite
package to clients running the more mainstream design
packages, especially those who have ordered, and are running multiple
copies of the Civil Suite in their offices thereby reducing their
running costs without sacrificing on functionality. A special
thanks to all of you for your continued support and confidence shown in
the Civil Suite.
A
statement which we can unequivocally state is this: "The Sewer module
alone makes this package pay for itself. The time saved in
completing just one sewer network design will cover the cost of the
package a few times over."
