Failure of hydraulic structures can result in significant costs and major damage to other infrastructure.
We use our strong hydrologic and hydraulic modelling skills to analyse the hydraulic performance of existing structures and design culverts, bridges, drains, spillways and drop structures that are cost-effective, hydraulically efficient and minimise failure risk.
Case studies
Kalkarindji and Daguragu Floodplain Mapping Study
Kalkarindji is a growing major remote township
The NT Government wanted to identify flood-free land within the Kalkarindji township and environs
Borroloola Floodplain Mapping Study
Borroloola has a long history of flooding from the McArthur River
The study results assisted the NT Government to develop safer and more resilient communities
Adelaide River Town Flood Study
A comprehensive flood study and impact assessment of the Mackenzie River
The flood model results were used to identify the existing flood risk and flood hazards throughout the Adelaide River town
Mackay Ring Road
A major infrastructure planning study for the Mackay Ring Road
The completed report considered all potential impacts including flooding and community concerns
Bakers One
Trunk drainage assessment to support development opportunities
Developed an integrated suite of water quality and drainage infrastructure for the Bakers One catchment to facilitate future development
Springfield Development
Flood and stormwater management for one of Australia’s largest urban developments
The adopted strategy maximised the developable area of the site
