As retaining structures, dikes and dams are subject to ageing, natural events and the growing threats posed by climate change. At Artelia, our specialists in hydraulics, geotechnics, structure and instrumentation, supported by advanced numerical calculation and modeling tools, assist the owners of these structures in analyzing the compliance of their facilities with these challenges as well as with regulatory requirements.
Our teams can also assist these owners in developing safety programs to ensure that all their hydrotechnical infrastructures are secured and maintained to keep a high level of reliability. Our services include rigorous inspection of facilities, monitoring of structure behavior using instrumentation, structural re-evaluation of retaining structures, and assessment of water management plans and dam rehabilitation options where appropriate.
As part of our risk analyses, we carry out dam damage studies to assess the potential impacts of a dam failure and ensure the adequacy of the emergency response plan in place. To support these analyses, our geomatics and hydraulics teams draw up comprehensive maps of potential flood zones and define decision-support tools to minimize the consequences for surrounding populations.
Driven by our values of technical excellence, proximity to clients and entrepreneurial spirit, we are more than ever determined to be a company that is useful to the world and to people, and that contributes to have a positive impact on the environment and society.
