The given charts presented different types of initiatives for households which can sink by inundation even after 10 decades.
Overall, a strong strategy is a must to save a home from water surges. Although a stopbank can hold flood till 100 years, a dweller can still avoid the water by raising the building.
An essential precaution for inhabitants is a high raised stopbank instilled beside the river or drain area. Its structure contains a berm and a floodgate. Especially the freeboard section is important, which can hold the water even in the distant future and create blockage for internal runoff, such as rainwater.
On the other hand, if the stopbank is unavailable, individuals can still make their belongings safe by building homes 300mm up from the ground. This method also needs a freeboard protecting the house for the next ten decades. Even though the flood would enter the area, but people can take shelter at their homes till the water comes down.
