Water Engineering
Water supply, drainage master planning and flood mitigation for dense urban catchments.
In Lagos, drainage is not a utility. It is the difference between a road and a river.
We plan and design water supply and drainage infrastructure for cities where the water table is high, the rainfall is intense and the catchment is already built on.
Work spans catchment-wide drainage master plans, flood mitigation schemes, outfall design and water supply distribution networks.
What this involves
Drainage master planning
Catchment delineation, hydrological modelling and a phased drainage strategy for a whole district.
Flood mitigation design
Attenuation, channel improvement, pumping and outfall works sized to a defined return period.
Water supply schemes
Source assessment, treatment, transmission and distribution network design.
Hydraulic modelling
Network and surface-water modelling to test capacity under storm and growth scenarios.
Supervision and commissioning
Construction supervision, testing and commissioning of water and drainage assets.
