Haestad Methods' Water Resources Suite Now Supports AutoCAD 2005

WATERBURY, Conn., May 24 /PRNewswire/ -- Haestad Methods today announced that its world-class suite of hydraulic modeling products for the water, storm, and wastewater industries now provide full support for AutoCAD 2005. Autodesk's AutoCAD 2005 was designed to help save time and money throughout the complete project lifecycle by adding new features for the efficient creation, management, and sharing of entire sets of drawings.

Haestad Methods' WaterCAD (water distribution), StormCAD (storm sewer), and SewerCAD (wastewater collection) suite will combine the same cutting-edge open-database architecture, customization capability, and easy-to-use interface with all the power of AutoCAD 2005. This new level of integration will provide Haestad Methods' clients with a seamless upgrade to Autodesk's products while maintaining their existing investment in Haestad's hydraulic modeling software.

Haestad Method's customers have already responded enthusiastically to the upgrade.
