Flood Engineering Assessments in Queensland

Flood Smart Engineering understands the value of flood engineering assessments for residential and commercial developments. Flood risks can significantly impact your operations and have consequences for property damage and on-site safety. Fortunately, our specialists offer comprehensive flood engineering services. Our team conducts in-depth site assessments to ensure you meet local authority requirements and protect the environment.

Why You Need A Flood Engineer

Flooding is a significant risk for residential and commercial properties; however, our expert flood risk engineers' comprehensive services can substantially lower hazards. Professionals can determine if and when flooding may occur, be it from nearby rivers, overland flow, or the coast. Putting a plan into place ensures the engineering on your site is suitable for the threats you face. With this information, you can mitigate risks and reduce future liabilities.

Flood Smart Engineering Expertise

Flood Smart Engineering brings massive experience to your operations. Our flood engineering services allow you to tailor defences to specific projects and build reports around the particular threats you face. Our engineers understand that every project is unique and requires a personalised approach for maximum benefits.

Modern Engineering, Advanced Solutions

Our team uses advanced modelling techniques, including 2D hydraulic TUFLOW modelling, to provide you with numerous reports parameterising likely flood characteristics, including flood levels, depths, velocities, and hazards. You can gain a fuller understanding of the possible impact of flooding events through complete impact appraisals, providing you with the resources you require to proceed with intended developments.

More specifically, you can use a flood report across multiple Councils for:

  • Identifying areas of risk to protect properties (both current and future).

  • Designing flood mitigation strategies that protect your investments and keep site users safe during work and occupancy periods.

  • Meet council regulations to ensure you pass their flood impact assessments and remain compliant.

When is A Flood Engineering Assessment Essential?

A flood risk assessment is essential in numerous situations, including:

  • Residential developments, such as new subdivisions or townhouses, especially on unbuilt land.

  • Commercial developments, like warehouses, shopping centres and factories, particularly those close to the coast, rivers, or floodplains.

  • Public infrastructure projects, like schools, parks, hospitals, and roads. Evaluations determine whether areas are at risk of flooding and the mitigation strategies required to handle typical and peak rainfall scenarios.

The Best Long Term Safety Investment

Decision-makers are far more likely to give the go-ahead if they believe a project will meet high safety standards and protect stakeholders. Because of this, Flood Smart Engineering provides accurate flood engineering assessments, guiding you on stormwater management and flood mitigation issues. Through this process, we assist with infrastructure design, helping you save time and money in the long term.
