This book provides a logical framework and understanding of how flood risk to communities can be considered and managed. It investigates how land use planning activities that support community growth can be informed by an understanding of the variation in flood behaviour, flood function, and isolation of an area from safety, and the associated risks to the community and the built environment. Featuring international case studies in land use planning, emergency management and flood mitigation, this book provides value for engineers, town planners and professionals involved in emergency management, as well as for postgraduate students studying flood risk solutions.
