Retaining Wall Concept That Could Stop The Flood Water From The Near By River
United States
Project Detail
An environmental consultant had to assess a site and provide a plan to the client for retaining wall design meant to block the flood water from a nearby river from entering the site.
Some old hand drawn sketches of a retaining wall structure and a PPT with landscaping plans, was all that was provided. Improvising the basic design and preparing a well rendered 3D model, to facilitate the consultant to give final presentation of the design to the client, was the task.
Challenges
Client expected a design improvement based on a landscape PPT & some handmade designs developed in 2008.
Files were without any exact dimensions or additional inputs from the client
No plans, elevations and CAD files were given to support the team for further design revisions and 3D modeling
Client’s verbal explanations were to be used as a base to analyze and understand the requirements.
Numerous brainstorming sessions, repeated iterations and approvals.
Client was accessible only through email and conference call
Engineering Solution
Retaining the wall to stop flood water from a nearby river entering the area filling it with debris
Hi-Tech team deftly handled the communication, approvals and design development process.
Built a retaining wall to extend the useful area towards the flood plain of the river.
Retaining wall was designed as a 3 stepped structure with property (7 – 8 homes and a swimming pool) at the top.
Terraces with trees and shrubs were included. This design feature made the entire wall look like a natural retaining boulder covered with greenery.
Narrow walkways and stairs that led to the terrace were incorporated in the design
Subterranean garage under the flat ground surface of the property was also included as a part of the design
