This publication aims to give designers an understanding of the issues of flooding, how to assess the risk, how to design appropriately and how to specify the correct materials to meet the challenge. It provides a background to the causes of flooding; the regulatory and government drivers that influence design and construction in flood risk areas and examines the concrete solutions to flood avoidance, resistance and resilience.
