What a Civil Engineer Drainage Report Contains

A drainage report is a technical document. It proves your stormwater system is designed correctly and meets the applicable standards.

The report includes hydraulic calculations, pipe sizes, grades, pit locations and the overflow path for major storm events.

It also documents how your site connects to the street drainage network or an approved discharge point.

RI ENG PTY LTD writes drainage reports that satisfy both your council and your private certifier in one submission.

We include all required calculations — there is no back-and-forth asking for more information.

When You Need a Drainage Report in NSW

NSW legislation requires a civil engineer drainage report for most residential building approvals.

You need one when you are building a new house, adding a secondary dwelling, constructing a duplex or completing a major extension.

Many certifiers and councils also require a drainage report for large paved areas, swimming pools and outbuildings that increase impervious surface.

If you are subdividing a lot, a drainage report is mandatory. The report must show how each new lot drains independently.

RI ENG PTY LTD reviews your project scope and tells you exactly what the report needs to cover before we start.

How RI ENG PTY LTD Prepares Your NSW Drainage Report

We start with your site plan and survey. Then we calculate the catchment area, rainfall intensity and required pipe sizes using the rational method.

We check the local council’s drainage connection requirements and design accordingly.

The finished report includes a drainage plan, hydraulic grade line calculations and a written summary that your certifier can act on directly.

We work with builders, architects, drafters and homeowners across NSW. The process is straightforward from your end — send us the documents, we do the engineering.

Turnaround is 2–5 business days for most residential projects.
