Dam engineering · 2019. 9. 30. · Dam engineering. Our team is expert in the investigation,...

Our team is expert in the investigation, design,

consenting, construction supervision, safety

management, regulatory review, surveillance,

through to decommissioning of dams and ancillary

infrastructure, such as power stations, spillways,

penstocks, bridges, inlet structures, tunnels

and roads.

In an evolving context of natural hazards, climate

change, and regulations, we provide owners and

developers with solutions with diverse benefits, while

also allowing them to plan for, and efficiently manage,

the risks inherent in water detention structures.

Our team relishes working with others. Our engineers,

scientists and planners bring specialist and

supplementary expertise to collaborative projects,

such as stakeholder engagement, fish passage, water

quality modelling, liquefaction, arch dam analysis, and

seismic hazard assessments.
