Today more than ever, water resources are exploited for the name "development". The ability to maintain or restore natural equilibrium that has been or might be altered by urban development has become increasingly demanding and challenging.
Hydraulic restoration must face the need to control the water course, modifying it in a "useful way" that is limiting its natural trend to change direction, flow and profile to safeguard infrastructures and urban areas.
Knowing and safeguarding the complex equilibrium between land and water is the main principle of our work. |
