Flood Resilient Building Design: Pop-up Display

Discover practical ways to help protect your home from flooding at this informative three-day pop-up display. Flood-resilient building design helps communities prepare for, endure and recover from floods, especially as our weather becomes more unpredictable.

Learn how simple measures such as raising floor levels, using flood-resilient materials and elevating essential services can significantly reduce damage, recovery costs and downtime.

This display also showcases the Design Guidance for Flood Resilient Homes, a newly released, practical resource to help Queenslanders build and maintain more resilient homes.

What to expect:

• explore flood-resilient building strategies and materials
• engage with real-world case studies
• learn practical approaches to improving resilience before, during and after flood events
• attend short talks and demonstrations on “Why flood-resilient design matters”.

This is a valuable opportunity for homeowners, industry professionals, students and community organisations to connect, share insights and discuss approaches that support safer, more resilient communities.

We can’t stop floods, but we can reduce their impact.
