Short summary

The presented study deals with numerical modelling of floods and their interactions with buildings. By means of a case study application, a commercial software is applied to simulate flooding within a test site situated in South Tyrol (Italy). A single-family house is thereby considered and exposed to specific flood discharges. The study shows possibilities and limits of numerical modelling techniques within flood risk management and, thereby, the planning of local structural protection measures.
