Hydraulic engineering
We view hydraulic engineering as a holistic task that combines the most diverse requirements of watercourses as part of our living environment. We plan hydraulic engineering measures on watercourses and lakeshores on behalf of municipalities, cantons and sponsors and restore obstructed watercourses to a near-natural state. Our solutions improve flood protection, enhance the ecological value of habitats and create local recreational areas.
Climate change increases the requirements
We have been committed to flood-proof and near-natural waters for over 30 years. We can say with a clear conscience that we understand bodies of water and their morphological characteristics and processes from the ground up. At the same time, we have state-of-the-art know-how in modeling and simulation. Climate change is exacerbating the situation in many bodies of water - we are ideally equipped to deal with it. Our experience in dealing with diverse stakeholder groups is at least as important for many of our clients. We also support you in stakeholder communication.
