Flood damage analysis package (FDA) application for Malaysian environment: volume I/ II / Nazrin Abu Bakar

In Malaysia, uncontrolled development over the past year within river catchment have resulted In the gradual deterioration of rivers as efficient conduits of water and sediment. It Is now estimated that some 29,000 square kilometers or 9 percent of the total land area of Malaysia Is flood-prone. Fre...

Regulation. Flood control In Malaysia, uncontrolled development over the past year within river catchment have resulted In the gradual deterioration of rivers as efficient conduits of water and sediment. It Is now estimated that some 29,000 square kilometers or 9 percent of the total land area of Malaysia Is flood-prone. Frequently, this has resulted In an Increase in the frequency and magnitude of flooding. In addition, flood damage costs have and will continue to Increase with time due to the growth of prosperity and wealth In flood-prone areas. Following the historical disastrous 1926 to 1971 floods, Malaysia has suffered an average annual damage of as much as US$ 677 million or 0.52 % of the gross national product. Since then the government has taken several positive steps to deal with the flood problem. These include institutional measures such as the establishment of a Permanent Flood Control Commission, structural measures such as river Improvement works and nonstructural measures such as flood forecasting and working systems. Under these circumstances, new diversified strategies are required to solve the flood damage problems and It Is necessary to adopt an efficient method for its analysis. This study will discuss on the capability and applicability of Flood Damage Analysis (FDA) Package as a tool for Flood Mitigation Considerations and Benefits which can be Incorporated In the planning and development processes. 1994 Thesis https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/104571/ https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/104571/1/104571.pdf text en public advanced_diploma Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) Faculty of Civil Engineering Abu Bakar, Sahol Hamid
