GRC HYDRO PROJECT WITH THE HOUSING CONNECTIONGRC Hydro have recently undertaken a flood assessment of the disabled housing redevelopment in Willoughby Council LGA on behalf of the Housing Connection. The proposal is for the addition of a second storey to an existing dwelling, to provide additional accommodation for people with disabilities. GRC Hydro are proud to be able to assist the Housing Connection in completing the flood study on a pro bono basis to accompany the development application in compliance with council’s LEP and DCP requirements for flooding. |

OUR PROJECTS
RECENT WORK FROM GRC HYDRO
Yarralumla Creek (ACT Government) |
YARRALUMLA CREEK FLOOD STUDY REVIEW AND MITIGATION WORKS
CLIENT: ACT GOVERNMENT/SMECThe project consisted of updating the Yarralumla Creek Flood Study to incorporate ARR2016 methods, as well as assessing mitigation options. As part of the review of this study it was noted that significant revision of the original study was required. A WBNM/TUFLOW hydrologic/hydraulic modelling system was built, calibrated to three historic events and validated to Flood Frequency Analysis. Design flood modelling was undertaken using ARR2016 methods. Various flood mitigation works were analysed and progressed to concept design stage. |
Michelago (GRC Hydro) |
FLOOD STUDY AND FLOODPLAIN RISK MANAGEMENT STUDY FOR COOMA, BREDBO, MICHELAGO AND BERRIDALE
CLIENT: SNOWY MONARO REGIONAL COUNCILGRC Hydro is undertaking a series of flood studies and floodplain risk management studies for key towns in the Snowy Monaro Regional Council LGA, considering multiple sources of flooding. A suite of hydrologic and hydraulic models is being developed, calibrated using a mix of flood frequency analysis, historical flood data and joint calibration techniques. The studies are focussing on key development areas in each town, as well as investigating measures for existing flood risk. Each study will have community consultation sessions tailored to the local issues and history of flooding. |
Canberra Light Rail Concept (Canberra Times) |
CANBERRA LIGHT RAIL PROJECT
CLIENT: ACT GOVERNMENT/CAPITAL METRO/SMECThe project involves flood modelling as part of the detailed design stage of the proposed Canberra Light Rail. Hydrologic and hydraulic analysis using a WBNM/TUFLOW modelling system was undertaken in order to assess criteria including depth over rail and flood impacts in design flood events. The modelling system provides high detail flood information over a large area. |
Barangaroo (GRC Hydro) |
HICKSON ROAD, BARANGAROO, FLOOD MODELLING AND DRAINAGE DESIGN
CLIENT: BARANGAROO DELIVERY AUTHORITY, WARREN SMITH AND PARTNERSGRC Hydro is currently undertaking a hydraulic investigation for Hickson Road, inclusive of a proposed subterranean train station at Barangaroo. This is being executed by using a TUFLOW rainfall on grid model. The study’s main outcome will be the design of a trunk stormwater drainage system considering various constraints. |
