Round Rock Meadows Drainage Case Study

by Stephanie Castillo

The Meadows neighbourhood is a 200-acre City of Round Rock development along Sam Bass Road. The neighbourhood drains to Brushy Creek and experiences historic localized flooding due to limited and undersized storm water infrastructure The Problem / Driver: The City of Round Rock provided LJA with flooding reports along with photos and video evidence of historic flooding. LJA was tasked with collecting additional data via field visits and electronic downloads, creating a verified existing hydraulic model based on past data received, and designing proposed alternatives to alleviate flooding with associated costs of each alternative.

Round Rock Meadows Drainage Case Study

The Solution The XPStorm software allowed LJA to model localized flooding and evaluate the feasibility of flood reduction alternatives in the Meadows neighbourhood.

• The XPStorm software allowed for a Dynamic

Solution for multi-directional drainage patterns. We were able to connect the storm drainage system to the natural topography.

• The Rain-On-Mesh feature allowed us to validate the

built existing conditions model using rain gage data and historic video evidence.

• XP 2D Extreme Engine allowed for faster solution

times.

Round Rock Meadows Drainage Case Study

The Result

• We were able to remove structures from the floodplain
• We were able to evaluate cost estimates for various

flood reduction alternatives The Future

• The City of Round Rock and LJA are currently building

a 1D-2D Dynamic XP STORM model of the Greater Round Rock West neighbourhood. The software was chosen for its ability to model BOTH localized and riverine flooding in the area of interest.

• Once complete, the existing model will be used to

develop and evaluate the feasibility of flood reduction alternatives.
