The diagrams below show how houses can be protected in areas which are prone to flooding.
The pictures below compare the way buildings can be shielded in places that tend to be flooded.
Overall, the main difference between the two diagrams is that the houses are built with or without the protection of the stopbank in front of them.
In the first diagram, the stopbank is constructed with a peak which is higher than a 100-year flood level to protect the behind house from flooding. Besides, this building faces another threat that is the rainwater that runoff from a higher mountain to the internal pond. Therefore, the floodgate is built to drain the internal water to the river outside the stopbank.
In the second picture, flooding can harm to the house which is constructed on the stilts and has no protection by the stopbank in front of it. Moreover, the house floor level is only higher than the 100-year flood level 300 mm which is called freeboard. This kind of house can prone to flooding if the flood level in 100 years overcome the house floor level.
