REAPPRAISAL OF THE LEVEE DESIGN FOR THE KERIAN RIVER FLOOD MITIGATION PROJECT (PHASE 3) IN BANDAR BAHARU, KEDAH

Flooding is a major concern globally affecting many countries around the world, including Malaysia. One of the available structural flood mitigation measures is the implementation of levees. Effective and economical in preventing floods, levees can also be integrated into urban landscaping works and...

Civil engineering (General) Flooding is a major concern globally affecting many countries around the world, including Malaysia. One of the available structural flood mitigation measures is the implementation of levees. Effective and economical in preventing floods, levees can also be integrated into urban landscaping works and consequently improve the aesthetic appeal of the river frontage.
