There is a growing demand to safeguard public infrastructure from flood events, as communities expect greater resilience and protection for people, property and essential services. Among the most challenging environments to protect are shopping centres; large, high-traffic facilities with diverse and complex access points that require comprehensive and tailored flood mitigation strategies.
Access points include pedestrian walkways, emergency exits, lift wells, and loading docks each presents distinct challenges when it comes to isolating a site from water ingress. These aren’t independent issues, they form part of a broader flood risk profile that demands an integrated, engineered response. AWMA’s FloodFree team delivers exactly that: a full suite of purpose-designed flood protection systems, tailored to meet the specific operational and structural requirements of commercial facilities.
Whether passive, automated, or manually operated, AWMA designs prioritise practical performance, end-user functionality, safety and operational preferences. Key design considerations include high traffic loads, emergency access, back-ups, manual overrides, integrated alarm systems, fast deployment and reset capabilities to minimise downtime post flood event.
