AS 7637 – Hydrology and Hydraulics
This Standard describes the hydrological and hydraulic functions, performance, design constraints and risk attributes for the design and assessment of railway infrastructure in relation to all forms of drainage in stormwater management.
This Standard is intended to govern public and private railways and railway drainage systems on a whole of life basis and any other drainage related work affecting the rail corridor.
The main purpose of this Standard is to provide a framework that promotes consistency and efficiency in design, construction, commissioning, maintenance, monitoring and decommissioning of track drainage and waterway crossings.
This Standard includes the hydraulic design of surface and sub-surface drainage systems including river and floodway crossings, culverts, pipes, channels, pits and grates.
This Standard aims to provide requirements to support in improving flood event resilience for rail corridor infrastructure. Generally, this involves a combination of flood mitigation, emergency management, flood forecasting and warning measures, land-use planning and infrastructure design.
