Preface
The present volume contains the papers presented at the first InternationalConference on Flood Recovery Innovation and Response (FRIAR) held at theheadquarters of the Institution of Civil Engineers in London, UK, July 2-3, 2008. Theconference is jointly organised by the University of Wolverhampton and WessexInstitute of Technology, UK and is sponsored by WIT Transactions on Ecologyand the Environment. The conference is endorsed by the UK based Flood RepairNetwork, the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS), and the CharteredInstitute of Loss Adjusters (CILA).
Flooding is of course a global phenomenon that each year claims around 25,000lives worldwide. Additionally, many more people must endure the homelessness,disease and crop failures that are left in the wake of the floods. The increasedfrequency of flooding in the last ten years, coupled with climate change predictionsand urban development, suggest that these statistics are set to worsen in future.When flooding occurs in populated areas it can cause substantial damage to propertyas well as threatening human life. In central Europe for example, recent flooding hasreached unprecedented levels; around a hundred people have lost their lives, thesocio-economic infrastructure of entire regions has been disrupted and natural andcultural heritage damaged. Estimated damage amounted to 15 billion euro in Germany,2 billion in Austria, between 2 and 3 billion in the Czech Republic and up to 35 millionin Slovakia. Five million people live in flood risk areas in England and Wales alone;the estimated cost of damage caused by the summer floods in the UK was 4 billionEuros (£3 billion) and the cost of household insurance has already risen significantlyas a direct result.
Apart from the physical damage to buildings, contents and loss of life, whichare the most obvious impacts of floods upon households, other more indirect losses,are often overlooked. These intangible impacts are generally associated withdisruption to normal life as well as longer-term health issues including stress-relatedillness.
This conference provides a forum for researchers, academics and practitionersactively involved in improving the repair, reinstatement and resilience of flooddamaged property. The conference aims to bring together engineers, scientists and
damaged property. The conference aims to bring together engineers, scientists andother professionals from all countries, involved in research and development activitiesin a wide range of technical and management topics related to flooding and itsdevastating effects.
The scientific topics presented at Flood Recovery Innovation and Response2008 conference included:
• Flood Risk Analysis and Vulnerability Assessment• Flood Risk Management• Flood Defence Methods• Rehabilitation and Restoration• Urban Flood Management - Innovation in Building Resilience• Coping Strategies• Financial and Insuring Issues
The editors would like to thank all the authors for their contribution, as well asthe members of the International Scientific Advisory Committee for their invaluablehelp in reviewing the papers.
