💧 Hydraulic Engineering

Hydraulic designs that are
efficient, practical,
and fully coordinated.

Balancing performance, compliance, and cost.

CCC Engineering builds hydraulic systems that work from day one. Every pipe is sized right. Every system meets NCC 2022 and AS/NZS 3500. And everything is coordinated with the other services in the building.

What we design and deliver.

Full hydraulic services from water supply to stormwater, gas lines to trade waste, all coordinated with the full building services package.

🚿

Hot & Cold Water Distribution

Hot and cold water system design. This covers pipe sizing, pressure zones, hot water loops, and legionella risk control. Meets AS/NZS 3500.1 and 3500.4.

🪠

Sanitary & Trade Waste

Sanitary drainage design. We handle fixture unit counts, stack sizing, vent pipes, and grease trap sizing for commercial kitchens and trade waste. Meets AS/NZS 3500.2.

🌧️

Stormwater & Subsoil Drainage

Stormwater drainage for roofs, podiums, and paved areas. We size detention tanks, design subsoil drainage for basements, and build OSD systems to council rules.

🌿

Roof Drainage & Rainwater Harvesting

Roof drainage layout, rainwater head and downpipe sizing, and overflow design. Rainwater harvesting systems with tank sizing, treatment, and supply for toilet flushing and irrigation.

🔥

Gas Reticulation & Appliance Connection

Natural gas and LPG pipe design. We calculate demand, size pipes, set pressure levels, and design appliance hookups. All coordinated with the gas authority and mechanical team.

⚙️

Pump Stations & Water Storage

Booster pump design, sump pump setup, and water tank sizing. We plan duty/standby setups, pump controls, and water storage for fire and daily use.

🔒

Backflow Prevention & Metering

We select and place backflow devices for all risk levels. We also design sub-meter layouts and size water meters to meet NCC WaterMark and council billing needs.

🏗️

Hydraulic Coordination with Structure

We coordinate drainage holes through slabs, walls, and footings. Sleeve lists, fall needs, and builder's work drawings go to the structural and architectural teams early.

📋

Compliance Documentation

NCC 2022 compliance reports, hydraulic certificates, and plumbing documents. Written to meet certifier, council, and Sydney Water (or equal authority) needs.

Compliant from concept. Certifiable at handover.

All our hydraulic designs follow NCC 2022 and AS/NZS 3500. We prepare compliance documents as standard. We issue hydraulic certificates when the certifier or consent authority needs them.

Efficient, practical, and fully coordinated.

Good hydraulic design is not hard. It just needs to be thorough. That means pipes sized right, smart drainage falls, stacks that fit the structure, and gas loads that match the real appliance demand.

We make drawings that plumbers can follow without calling us to ask what a note means. We send penetration schedules to the structural team early. OSD calculations use the actual council rules, not a generic template.

  • Pipe sizing based on actual peak demand
  • Drainage designed for the falls that can be achieved
  • Gas loads matched to real appliance inputs
  • OSD sized to the specific council requirements

All disciplines. One team.

Hydraulic design works best when fire water supply, mechanical condenser water, and electrical pump power are all planned together from the start.

Clean systems. Happy clients.
