Water Supply System Design
We design potable and process water supply networks that hold up under real operating conditions: correct pipe sizing, adequate residual pressure at every connection point, and documentation your contractor can actually build from.

Water supply design decisions made on paper cost far more to fix once pipes are in the ground. We model each network hydraulically before it is drawn, so pipe diameters, pump duty points and pressure zones are verified against real demand scenarios rather than rule-of-thumb sizing.
Our team works on new distribution networks, extensions to existing systems, pumping station design, and rehabilitation of aging infrastructure, producing drawings and calculation reports that meet the technical standards and approving authority relevant to each project.
What this includes
- •Potable and process water network layout and sizing
- •Pump and pumping station design, duty/standby configuration
- •Pressure zone planning and pressure-reducing valve placement
- •Storage reservoir and tank sizing
- •Network extension and rehabilitation design for existing systems
- •Fire-fighting water supply integration
How we work
- 01
Data collection
Site survey data, demand figures, source and connection points, existing infrastructure records.
- 02
Hydraulic modeling
Network sizing and pressure verification under peak, average and fire-flow demand scenarios.
- 03
2D/3D design
Coordinated drawings in AutoCAD, Revit or ArchiCAD, clash-checked against other services.
- 04
Documentation & handover
Calculation reports, pipe schedules and drawing packages ready for permitting and construction.
Frequently Asked Questions
What standards do you design water supply networks to?
We design to the technical standards and codes that apply to the project, adapting to whichever authority or utility governs it rather than working to a single fixed standard.
Can you work with an existing network model or survey data we already have?
Yes. We regularly pick up projects mid-stream, importing existing survey data, GIS records or partial models and building on them rather than starting from zero.
Do you size pumping stations as part of water supply design?
Yes, pump selection, duty/standby configuration and pumping station layout are part of the water supply design service, verified against the same hydraulic model as the rest of the network.
What software do you deliver drawings in?
Deliverables are provided in AutoCAD (2D) and Revit or ArchiCAD (3D/BIM), matching whichever format your project or authority requires.
