Grading and Piping Module

The SITEOPS® Grading and Piping Module, an optional add-on module to the SITEOPS software suite, features an array of intelligent auto-drawing tools as well as the ability to create, revise and optimize conceptual layouts, grading plans and storm-water drainage plans at reduced costs. Civil engineers, land developers and architects can utilize this 3D conceptual design, grading and estimating tool to execute rapid site selection assessments to determine site feasibility.

Users can swiftly produce grading plans and view costs associated with any "what-if" scenario a client may propose for a site, as well as generate cut and fill estimates on the fly. Within hours, and sometimes minutes, users can have fully cost-optimized conceptual site plans and take-off budgets. The Grading and Piping Module provides incredible time and cost savings while reducing project risks for site planning and land design. The software identifies improved layout solutions and grading savings on sites ranging from single-acre retail parcels to larger projects.

In addition to the speed at which grading plans can be produced, the module also rapidly compares options for sites and produces the costs of pursuing LEED certification points. Users have the ability to make major revisions to a site, such as moving a building, and the entire layout will be redrawn within a matter of seconds. The module also has capabilities for auto-drawing dynamic streets, parking and drives with control over aspects such as flares, buffers and stacking.

The Grading and Piping Module exports cost estimates in HTML and Excel-compatible formats and design files in DWG, Land XML and PDF formats, as is standard with the SITEOPS software suite. The software generates site cost-optimization reports (SCOR) that include 2D and 3D images of the site design.
