What is Civil WorkSuite?
Civil WorkSuite is a collection of civil engineering industry-leading software solutions that helps to deliver civil engineers, planners, and designers the tools to design virtually any civil engineering project. Whether designing roadways, bridges, tunnels, or site; Civil WorkSuite has tools to go from concept to detail, to analysis, to visualization, to digital delivery. Having the right tools when needed is important to create the optimum design solutions. Civil WorkSuite allows firms to grow in services without the worry of costly new software.
Road & Bridge Software
- OpenRoads Designer is an extremely versatile civil design application that is used for all types and sizes of civil projects around the world. The application addresses a wide variety of complex tasks such as interchange design, roundabout design, earthworks, surveying, sanitary and stormwater network design, subsurface utilities, and production of construction staking reports.
- OpenRoads ConceptStation is a road network conceptual design software. It allows you to rapidly create conceptual designs during the preliminary and planning stages of your infrastructure projects.
- OpenBridge Designer allows you to leverage bridge information modeling (BrIM). With the latest bridge technology and capabilities, you can efficiently model, design, and produce project deliverables in a dynamic, interactive, and parametrically-enabled environment.
- OpenSite Designer is an application designed to address all aspects of site design, engineering, and land development. OpenSite Designer also includes OpenSite SITEOPS, so you can quickly identify constraints early, understand financial implications and project feasibility, and produce optimized solutions to meet your client’s needs.
Stormwater Software
- OpenFlows Storm (Advanced) is a fully dynamic, multi-platform, hydraulic modeling solution developed for the analysis of complex stormwater systems. You can analyze these systems using built-in hydraulic and hydrology tools and a variety of wet-weather calibration methods. From stormwater master plan development to water quality studies, this application provides you an easy-to-use environment to analyze, design, and operate stormwater systems.
Reality Modeling & Visualization Software
- iTwin Capture Modeler enables you to capture, manage, analyze, and share reality data in a connected reality data environment to serve as a single source of truth. Turn reality data into real-world insights for your digital twins to make informed decisions.
- Bentley LumenRT is revolutionary real-time visualization software that enables you to bring your projects to life with cinematic quality images, videos, and real-time presentations of your infrastructure design models immersed within the context of lifelike digital nature. You can easily deliver environmentally coherent models and speed stakeholder buy-in for all your projects.
Structural Software
- ProStructures is comprehensive steel and concrete design software that delivers parametric structural components to increase your productivity and profitability. You can create and automatically update 3D models of structural steel, metal work, and reinforced concrete structures. ProStructures includes ProSteel and ProConcrete.
Tunnel Software
- OpenTunnel Designer increases productivity up to 50% and provides you with purpose-built tools for the job at hand. The software helps eliminate unnecessary rework and delays by allowing project members to work in one easy-to-use application. Easily exchange information with other Bentley applications such as Leapfrog, PLAXIS, OpenRoads, OpenRail, OpenBridge and ProStructures, so you can have a unified workflow for analysis, design, and performance.
