Connected engineering solutions for water infrastructure
Water moves through many parts of the built environment. Asset owners, utility authorities and developers often need to understand how water flows or is distributed through pipes, pumps or storage before it reaches its designated end point.
We work with utility authorities, government agencies, industrial operators, land developers and contractors to support the planning, design and delivery of drainage, coastal, water and wastewater infrastructure. Our water services draw on our hydrology, hydraulics, civil, mechanical, structural and electrical teams to support integrated and practical infrastructure.

What we do
Our water services
We support water utilities, road and rail authorities, local government, industrial operators, land developers and contractors from concept through to commissioning, where we are engaged. Our experience spans flood and drainage, pipeline networks, pump stations, dams and coastal water infrastructure.
Bridge and creek scour assessments
We combine hydraulics and geotechnical inputs to provide scour assessments and develop solutions for site-specific conditions.
Coastal analysis and modelling
We provide outfall studies, marine discharge studies plus flushing studies and water quality assessments for harbours and marinas.
Drainage design and water quality modelling
We can support engineering works with drainage design, including hydraulic modelling, water quality modelling and design of stormwater and drainage infrastructure.
Hydraulic and hydrologic analysis
Our team provides flood modelling analysis, flood impact assessment, and water-related infrastructure planning using 1D and 2D modelling where appropriate.
Pipeline design
Concept to detailed design of water mains, pressure sewers and gravity sewers, including alignment, materials, structural assessment and constructability.
Pumping system design
Sewer and water delivery pump stations with integrated civil, structural, mechanical and electrical design.
Tanks and dams design
We can help with the design of small dams and concrete retaining structures, dam inspections, spillway assessments and embankment specification.
How we work

Practical, collaboration led delivery
Our water credentials
We understand and apply relevant national and state standards when delivering flood studies, engineering designs, and water and wastewater related infrastructure.

Australian Rainfall and Runoff (ARR)
ARR is a key national guideline for estimating design flood characteristics in Australia. Where relevant, we apply current ARR methodology to flood studies and hydraulic assessments, and can assist clients understand how updates may affect existing studies and infrastructure planning.

Water Services Australia codes
Where engaged to do so, we prepare detailed design and documentation incorporating applicable Water Services Australia Codes and project specific requirements. This may include pressure and gravity pipeline design, pump station design, valving and valve pits, water storage solutions, electrical switchboard and instrumentation and control.

Australian standards
AS3500 governs plumbing and drainage in and around buildings. Where engaged to do so, we apply relevant AS3500 requirements to sanitary systems, stormwater, hot and cold-water service design within developments, industrial sites and treatment facility buildings.
