00:38.220 --> 00:40.760
The U.S. army corps of engineers
awful district.

00:41.640 --> 00:45.340
Like to talk to you about non structural
flood risk management measures.

00:46.530 --> 00:49.290
We'll stick were familiar with
structural for risk management

00:49.290 --> 00:52.650
measures which consist of things
such as Lebanese and flood walls

00:52.830 --> 00:57.560
diversion channel's retention structures
retention ponds measures.

00:57.560 --> 01:00.640
It physically change the environment
to manage flood risk.

01:01.650 --> 01:05.070
Now on structural flood risk management
measures reduced flood

01:05.070 --> 01:08.990
risk by modifying characteristics
of buildings and structures

01:09.240 --> 01:13.700
that are at risk of damage due to
flooding and or by modifying

01:13.700 --> 01:17.750
practices of people living in or
owning property in flood plains.

01:18.700 --> 01:21.660
When you talk about non structural
flood risk management measures.

01:22.180 --> 01:25.080
They're typically two main
non structural measures.

01:25.810 --> 01:27.050
The first as relocation.

01:27.640 --> 01:29.210
The second is elevation.

01:30.500 --> 01:33.720
We location is one assistance is
typically provided a home and

01:33.720 --> 01:37.170
business owners so they can relocate
out of areas that have a

01:37.170 --> 01:38.230
high risk of light.

01:39.000 --> 01:42.170
That allows property owners to probably
relocate on of the flood

01:42.170 --> 01:44.780
plain or flood way and reduce
their flood risk.

01:45.770 --> 01:49.150
After papua to locate the structures
will be removed from the

01:49.150 --> 01:50.240
flood away in flood plain.

01:51.030 --> 01:54.520
This role are water to flow through
an area that is why are able

01:54.520 --> 01:58.150
to accommodate higher fines of
water increasing the capacity

01:58.150 --> 01:59.140
of the natural Street.

02:00.540 --> 02:03.830
The circuit non structural for risk
measured measure is elevation.

02:05.090 --> 02:06.770
This is a typical house construction.

02:07.550 --> 02:09.400
The finish for the home is that great.

02:10.090 --> 02:14.200
During a fun event water inflow through
the home causing damage.

02:15.320 --> 02:19.920
Elevation was the first for lola
home above the one% any what

02:19.920 --> 02:22.570
chance from all are one
hundred year for all.

02:23.380 --> 02:25.500
This reduces the risk of
damage due to flooding.

02:26.160 --> 02:29.080
The house is elevated. So floodwaters
will flow beneath that

02:29.080 --> 02:31.890
there's for mobile reducing
the risk of damages.

02:32.910 --> 02:36.470
That includes a discussion on non structural
flood risk management measures.

02:37.000 --> 02:37.340
Thank you..
