Flood risk assessments & sustainable urban drainage solutions

Waldeck provides both flood risk assessments and sustainable urban drainage solutions either seperately or as a package. They are particularly useful at the early feasibility stage, the planning phase and as part of Code for Sustainable Homes applications. We offer:

• flood risk analysis for projects built within flood risk areas highlighting risks to the design team, contractors, clients and end- users
• advice on alternative foundation and drainage options
• documents that satisfy local planning authorities’ conditions in respect of mitigating flood risk compliant with PPS25 and the BRE for compliance with the Sur 1 requirements of the Code for Sustainable Homes
• research by our R&D team, which constantly explores other modern methods of construction for flood resilience/control and sustainable infiltration systems
• a review of your existing hydrological and hydrogeological situation together with an environmental impact assessments which can ensure optimum design achieving greenfield run-off flows and the re-charging of ground water while enhancing the environmental aspect
• interpretation and assessment of Environment Agency / Drainage Board flood information; 3D ground and hydraulic modelling to see the effects of river embankment / watercourse breach and assessment of the overland flood flow depth and velocities

• expert help for projects of all sizes, from small private domestic properties to major housing developments
