Webinar: Planning flood protection along flowing waters digitally

Optimised software-supported planning of levees with the new Naue SolutionFinder

Heavy rainfall and increasing pressures from flooding put our embankment systems under strain. To rely on a robust and modern embankment infrastructure, technically advanced embankment cross-sections are essential. The new SolutionFinder simplifies your planning to make embankment structures safer and more efficient. By integrating geosynthetics and adhering to scientifically recognised standards, the SolutionFinder provides precise solutions. It assists with the design of embankment sealing, improves stability, erosion protection, and load-bearing capacity. This not only saves time but also ensures planning reliability and liability protection.

About the webinar:

In this webinar, we present the SolutionFinder for flood protection along flowing waters, a powerful tool for selecting appropriate flood protection solutions and subsequent levee planning. You will learn how to explore various design options using the SolutionFinder and optimise one-, two-, and three-zone levees and their sealing, as well as erosion protection and reinforcement solutions with geosynthetics. We will showcase different solution and calculation approaches, and demonstrate how to develop future-proof and tender-ready designs in a short amount of time.

Note: The SolutionFinder is part of the Naue Portal, which is available to you worldwide 24/7 at no cost and offers comprehensive planning support as well as direct expert consultation.
