Dry Floodproofing (Resist)• Making a building watertight,
impermeable to flood waters• NFIP allows in non-residential buildings
only• For new construction or substantial
improvements to existing buildings• Acceptable in A, AE, A1-A30, AO, & AH
Zones• Design must be certified (Liability)
![Page 9: Understanding Active and Passive Floodproofing Options for Non- Residential Buildings in a Special Flood Hazard Area Course Number: SV003 Learning Units:](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5516ba8c550346a25b8b5e18/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Wet Floodproofing (Relieve) • Flood Vents equalize the
hydrostatic pressure• NFIP allows in both residential
and non-residential structures• For new construction or
substantial improvements to existing buildings
• Acceptable in A, AE, A1-A30, AO, & AH Zones
• ICC-ES Certified Options

Which To Design With?
• Dry Vs Wet• Design differences and costs• Active vs Passive approaches
![Page 13: Understanding Active and Passive Floodproofing Options for Non- Residential Buildings in a Special Flood Hazard Area Course Number: SV003 Learning Units:](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5516ba8c550346a25b8b5e18/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Section 2
• Dry Floodproofing • Design requirements & materials• Active & passive flood barriers• Flood proofing certificate & liability
![Page 14: Understanding Active and Passive Floodproofing Options for Non- Residential Buildings in a Special Flood Hazard Area Course Number: SV003 Learning Units:](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5516ba8c550346a25b8b5e18/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Dry Floodproofing
• Planning: Is it possible? – Considerations
• Warning time, Safety & Access• Flood Velocities, Depths, and Debris• Frequency• Emergency Plan• Inspection & Maintenance Plan• Cost• Liability
![Page 15: Understanding Active and Passive Floodproofing Options for Non- Residential Buildings in a Special Flood Hazard Area Course Number: SV003 Learning Units:](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5516ba8c550346a25b8b5e18/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Warning Time, Safety & Access
• Time is critical• Active flood proofing
measures• Human Stability• Dry Flood Proofing is
not appropriate in a flash flood area.
![Page 16: Understanding Active and Passive Floodproofing Options for Non- Residential Buildings in a Special Flood Hazard Area Course Number: SV003 Learning Units:](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5516ba8c550346a25b8b5e18/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Flood Velocities, Depths & Debris
• Cost Prohibitive When– Flood Velocities are over 5 feet per second – Base Flood depths in excess of 3 feet
• Impact forces from debris– Calculation assumes 1 second duration of impact– Object estimated at 1,000 pounds
![Page 17: Understanding Active and Passive Floodproofing Options for Non- Residential Buildings in a Special Flood Hazard Area Course Number: SV003 Learning Units:](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5516ba8c550346a25b8b5e18/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Flood Frequency
• How often• Wear & Tear• Risks of
implementing a emergency plan over and over
• If frequency is not a factor, time to design
![Page 18: Understanding Active and Passive Floodproofing Options for Non- Residential Buildings in a Special Flood Hazard Area Course Number: SV003 Learning Units:](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5516ba8c550346a25b8b5e18/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Emergency Operation Plan

![Page 26: Understanding Active and Passive Floodproofing Options for Non- Residential Buildings in a Special Flood Hazard Area Course Number: SV003 Learning Units:](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062303/5516ba8c550346a25b8b5e18/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Three Options
1. ICC-ES Certified Engineered Openings
2. Unique project specific Engineered Openings
3. Non-engineered Openings
Both FEMA and the ICC reference ASCE 24.
ASCE requires that flood openings allow for a 3” sphere to pass through to permit for debris.

• Provide 1 sq in of net open area for every 1sq ft of enclosed area
• An 8”x16” hole with air vent device inserted does NOT provide 128 sq in!
• Account for obstructions to flow• If I-Codes apply, 3” min dimension• Liability: Design Professional, Surveyor,
