Synopsis

Foundations for understanding water in the built and natural world. This authoritative core presents the principles of hydrology and its role in hydraulic engineering, helping readers analyze rivers, drainage, and water systems with clear, practical guidance.

This edition distills key concepts from the field into accessible explanations and method outlines. It emphasizes how water movement, sediment, and landforms interact with engineering projects, from sewers and drainage to dams and irrigation. The book is a practical reference for forecasting, planning, and evaluating water resources.

• Foundational topics in water flow, river behavior, and sediment transport.


• Step-by-step approaches to project planning, cost estimation, and risk assessment.


• Scope from landscape-scale drainage to urban sewerage and water supply.


• Illustrative examples and methods used by engineers to design and manage water systems.

Ideal for readers of civil and environmental engineering, hydrology students, and professionals working on water resources and infrastructure.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
