ASSOCIATION PROFILE

The Hydraulic Consultants Association Australasia Ltd. (previously AHSCA NSW Inc.) serves as a new international professional forum that facilitates the exchange of ideas, experiences and solutions in the hydraulic and fire services design industry.

We also act to resolve problems affecting the profession and practice of hydraulic and fire protection services as a whole.

Our Voice is Your Voice.

The HCAA continually strives to provide a professional and representative voice on issues of significance in our growing industry. In addition, we offer a range of opportunities to members addressing “hot” topics of interest through industry news items and hydraulic engineering and fire protection events.

We Exist in the Real World

Throughout the year we organize technical events covering various subjects including water, drainage, energy, sustainability and updates on new legislation.

These events aim to contribute to professional development (CPD) and often stimulate debate among our members and other professionals in the hydraulics and building sector.

A Clear Distinction

The HCAA is a non-for-profit organization and does not mandate the receipt of income from endorsing materials or product from Affiliate members. Our focus is to celebrate the combined efforts of industry, authorities and professionals to provide sustainable engineered outcomes for our association.
