The engineers at RIZZO offer an extensive knowledge of the nuances of hydrologic and hydraulic engineering, analysis, and design.  Our team specializes in complex projects requiring strict Quality Assurance/Quality Control and works within the requirements of the country, state and local governments.  Our Hydrologic and Hydraulic services span the world, covering a large range of projects including:

• Hydropower Dams and Flood Control Projects
• Nuclear Power Facilities
• Water Supply and Industrial Cooling Systems
• Site Development

Our engineers work with clients to develop effective work plans, schedules, and budgets within the regulatory framework of water-related development projects.  A combination of traditional surveying techniques and emerging technology allows our team to develop detailed and accurate three dimensional site, watershed, and river models.  Using the gathered information and 25+ years of experience, we then formulate the most effective design for water control and management.

A number of models, such as Delft 3-D and and HEC-RAS (Hydrologic Engineering Center-River Analysis System), supported by GIS (Geographic Information System) capabilities are used to create and analyze the majority of RIZZO’s complex hydrologic and hydraulic models.
