Engineering – New
Civil Engineering Solutions for Your Development Projects
Our Engineers aim to coordinate the smooth management of your project. We liaise with architects, builders, contractors and government authorities on your behalf, fostering clear communication and effective working relationships.
General Civil Engineering Design & Documentation
We engineer designs for all stages of development and our engineering expertise can be applied to all forms of development including urban and rural subdivisions, single and multi-unit residential development, retirement villages, commercial and industrial developments.
Concept & Feasibility studies
Project costs estimates
Road & drainage design
Bulk earthworks modeling
Driveway & Carpark design
Intersection design
Construction Supervision
Project Management
Sewer & Water Reticulation mains design
Flooding
A Flood Impact Assessment is required to support most development on flood-prone land. If a development is proposed upon flood prone land, a Flood Impact Assessment is required to determine if the development would have an effect on the behaviour of or be affected by the 1% Annual Exceedance Probability (AEP) flood event.
We are experienced in providing reports such as:
- Flood studies
- Flood constraints assessments
- Development of flood compliance reports
Stormwater
Most Development Applications (DA) must identify the method of stormwater disposal. Plans, specifications and computations must be provided at both DA and Construction Certificate (CC) stage in order to demonstrate compliance with Council requirements.
Specifically we are experienced in providing:
- Stormwater drainage designs
- Stormwater management plans
- On-Site Stormwater Detention (OSD)
General Civil Engineering Design & Documentation
Our Civil Engineers and Environmental Engineers work together to provide a number of services often required as part of the development process. These include:
Soil and water management plans/soil erosion and sediment control designs and plans
detail how erosion and sedimentation will be prevented from leaving the construction site during the works
Water Cycle Management Studies (WCMS)
which are required for all development applications within the Sydney drinking water catchment to enable Council and WaterNSW to decide whether your development will have a neutral or beneficial effect on water quality
Water Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD)
which is the integration of urban planning and development with the management, protection and conservation of the water cycle as a whole
MUSIC (model urban stormwater improvement conceptualisation) water quality modelling
which uses software to simulate rainfall, stormwater runoff and pollution. It also simulates pollution removal and flow reduction through stormwater management systems such as sediment ponds, wetlands, bioretention and harvesting
