Civil engineering hydraulics

This book is designed to meet the special but not exclusive needs of civil engineering students regarding for degrees and diplomas and for engineering council parts I and II examinations at universities and colleges of higher education. Having as its main feature a substantial number of worked examples its purpose is to augment lecture courses and standard textbooks on fluid mechanics and hydraulics by illustrating and application of the underlying theory to a wide range of practical situations. The inclusion of exercise problems with answers will enable students to assess their understanding of the theory and methods of analysis and design.Aspects of relevant theory in concise form and accompanied by explanation are included at the beginning of each chapter. The book should prove useful not only to students but also to practising engineers as a concise working reference.
