Expertise in Dam Safety

Dam Safety Consulting is a bespoke engineering consultancy dedicated to the safety, integrity, and performance of dams. With over 15 years of experience — including owner and operational management roles — we understand the realities of owning, operating, and maintaining dams. These complex structures require expertise across structural, geotechnical, hydraulic, and risk disciplines. With deep technical expertise across all aspects of dam safety, we offer practical, cost-effective solutions that balance safety, compliance, and budget constraints for dams of any size.

We help clients cut through the complexities of dam safety analysis and identify cost-effective solutions through clear advice, targeted analysis, and risk-based decision support. Our goal is to improve the reliability and safety of dams, optimize investment, and give owners confidence in the future performance of their assets - without gilding the lily.
