Dewatering design and modelling

For a range of applications and industries, AIL can provide a complete solution of dewatering design. Modeling, analysis, and judgment are the three main components of dewatering design.

  • Modelling – A conceptual groundwater model, which is the cornerstone of excellent dewatering design, is the most significant component.
  • Analysis – Numerical calculations, analysis, or numerical modelling, such as estimating the needed pump flow rate or assessing potential environmental implications.
  • Judgement – To guarantee that the proposed design is practical and feasible, considerable judgment is necessary.

AIL can offer modelling services for dewatering related activities and groundwater contamination design and particle tracking. 2D and 3D numerical modelling services operating in steady or transient states with a number of modelling packages are available.

We also have the option to use special add-on packages for complicated boundary conditions or individual well modelling if required.

Our integrated modelling services are designed to provide analysis and design throughout the entire life cycle of a dewatering project form the site investigation stage, system design and operation up to the system shut down and recovery. The services extend further to groundwater build up review against the newly built structure. We also specialise in the analysis of dewatering system design in conjunction with groundwater cut-off structures such as diaphragm walls, secant piles, sheet piles, slurry walls, etc.
