Flood Engineer in Brisbane

Brisbane Flood Engineer

CWD Group provides flood and overland flow assessments to support informed planning, reduce risk and ensure compliance with local authority requirements. Our qualified flood engineers use advanced tools like TUFLOW modelling to simulate flood behaviour, assess flow paths and determine how developments interact with natural waterways and catchments.

We deliver comprehensive flood risk assessments and impact assessments that identify potential hazards and inform practical mitigation strategies. Whether you're developing residential land, commercial infrastructure or public assets, our team ensures your site layout and stormwater drainage design is resilient and compliant.

With a strong focus on accuracy, performance and safety, CWD Group offers end-to-end support for projects in flood-prone areas across Brisbane and beyond.

Trust us to deliver data-driven, council-ready solutions that protect your investment and the surrounding environment. For enquiries, contact us today on (07) 3472 5918.

TUFLOW Modelling

At CWD Group, we use TUFLOW modelling to simulate complex flood behaviour and assess how water moves across land during major rainfall events. This advanced hydraulic modelling tool allows us to design effective flood mitigation strategies, support approvals and guide infrastructure planning with confidence and precision.

Stormwater Drainage Design
TUFLOW modelling helps inform stormwater drainage design by identifying runoff behaviour, peak flows and overflow paths, ensuring infrastructure is appropriately sized, placed and capable of managing stormwater safely and efficiently.

Flood Risk Assessments

We use TUFLOW to perform accurate flood risk assessments, providing critical data on inundation levels and flow velocities that help clients mitigate risk and meet council and regulatory compliance requirements.

Development Applications & Approvals

Our TUFLOW-based modelling supports development applications by offering reliable flood analysis to councils and certifiers, streamlining approvals and demonstrating compliance with flood planning and design guidelines.

Overland Flow Path Analysis

TUFLOW enables precise mapping of overland flow paths, helping us identify potential hazards, design mitigation strategies and protect assets and surrounding areas from uncontrolled surface water movement.

Infrastructure Planning (e.g. Roads, Culverts, Detention Basins)

From culverts and detention basins to road alignments, TUFLOW modelling informs infrastructure design by predicting flow patterns, peak loads and capacity needs for long-term functionality and resilience.

Overland Flow Path & Flood Assessments

CWD Group delivers detailed overland flow path and flood assessments to support safe and compliant development in flood-prone areas. Our flood engineers use advanced hydraulic modelling, including TUFLOW, to analyse surface water flow across sites, identify flood risks and design practical solutions. These assessments are crucial for land development, stormwater planning and infrastructure resilience.

Flood Investigation Reports

Our flood investigation reports provide in-depth analysis of flood behaviour, historical events and contributing factors to help stakeholders understand and address flooding risks. These reports support litigation, insurance claims, remediation planning and council requirements. We combine site inspections, modelling and data analysis to produce clear, evidence-based findings.

Flood Studies & Impact Assessments

CWD Group prepares comprehensive flood studies and impact assessments for developments located near waterways or within flood-affected zones. These reports assess how a proposed development will influence flood behaviour on-site and downstream. We offer practical recommendations and mitigation strategies to manage risk, secure approvals and protect surrounding communities and infrastructure.
