Stormwater Management and Flood Protection

This 1.5-hour event begins with relaxed networking over drinks and nibbles, followed by a focused presentation showcasing how Watersmart delivers end-to-end solutions across projects of all sizes and complexities. From constrained urban sites to large-scale infrastructure, we’ll explore how integrated design thinking can improve outcomes, reduce costs, and enhance resilience.

Attendees will gain insight into:

• Modern stormwater detention and reuse strategies, including modular and space-saving systems
• Designing for compliance while maintaining flexibility across varying site conditions
• Practical applications of Water Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD) principles
• Flood protection solutions, including deployable barriers, passive systems, and property-level defence strategies
• Real-world case studies demonstrating how these solutions are applied across New Zealand projects

With a particular focus on flood barriers and asset protection, this session will equip you with practical knowledge to confidently specify and integrate solutions into your designs and reports.

Whether you're working on residential, commercial, or infrastructure projects, this event will provide valuable tools to help you deliver smarter, more resilient water outcomes.
