Infrastructure Risk Assessment
Hazard assessments can include the determination of risk to existing infrastructure. Quantification of the rate of erosion and knowledge of the flow regime in a given watercourse allows for the prediction of infrastructure lifespan. Lifespan can be calculated based on the probability of survival for a given storm event. Erosion hazard sites can then be prioritized based on degree of risk and imminence of failure. It is our experience that early maintenance and repair can prevent more expensive problems from developing.
