Floods and Hydraulic Engineering

  • Infrastructure design to help mitigate the impact of flooding on society, infrastructure and the environment by designing drainage systems, stormwater management systems, and flood protection structures such as levees and flood walls.

  • Stormwater management services to help reduce the impact of heavy rainfall events on urban areas to prevent flooding, soil erosion, and protect public health and the environment. This entails designing stormwater retention systems, green infrastructure, and other measures to reduce the volume of stormwater runoff.

  • Inundation mapping and risk analysis to identify areas that are at risk of flooding and assess the potential impact of floods on infrastructure, communities, and the environment, providing insights for insurers to accurately assess flood risk and determine insurance premiums and to improve emergency response planning. This can include developing flood hazard mapping, hydraulic modelling, and conducting risk assessments.
