What is HydroCAD?

HydroCAD is a computer-aided design (CAD) software package used for hydrologic and hydraulic modeling. It's commonly used by civil engineers, land developers, and stormwater management professionals to design and analyze stormwater runoff systems, including detention ponds, culverts, and drainage networks. The software helps ensure compliance with local regulations and optimize system performance.
