TIDAL COMPARTMENT--WORKS FOR ITS IMPROVEMENT. Removal of obstructions to tidal flow--Weirs erected for public works--Works for improvement of tidal compartment of rivers--1st, Removal of lateral obstructions; jetties objectionable; piers of bridges objectionable--2d, Training walls; Eibble low-water training walls; comparative advantages of straight and curved walls; form and construction of river walls--3d, Closing of subsidiary channels--4th, Substituting straight cuts for bends--hth, Dredging; its introduction; bag and spoon dredge; bucket between two lighters; steam dredges; hand dredges; dredging on the Clyde and Wear; improvements in steam dredges; dredging on Amsterdam and Suez Canals; longitudinal and cross dredging; blasting at Ballyshannon, at the Severn, and at St. Heliers, Jersey; dredging in exposed situations--6th, Excavation; by diving-bell; by floatation; by cofferdams--1th, Scouring--8th, Reducing the inclination of the bed. The removal of all obstacles to the flow of the tide Removal of is the object, as already stated, to which attention has to tidal flow, chiefly to be directed in designing improvements in the department of navigation we are now considering; and in order to form a satisfactory opinion, it is necessary to have an accurate survey, showing the depths of water and the breadths of channel throughout the whole extent of the river, as well as the amount of tidal range, the velocity of the currents, the rise on the bed, and the nature of the materials of which the bottom and banks are composed, as explained in the chapter on Hydrometric Observations. Possessed of this information, the engineer is in a position to consider to what extent the bed of the river may, with advantage, be deepened and...

Download or read book Irrigation and Drainage Engineering written by Peter Waller and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-11-18 with total page 747 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook focuses specifically on the combined topics of irrigation and drainage engineering. It emphasizes both basic concepts and practical applications of the latest technologies available. The design of irrigation, pumping, and drainage systems using Excel and Visual Basic for Applications programs are explained for both graduate and undergraduate students and practicing engineers. The book emphasizes environmental protection, economics, and engineering design processes. It includes detailed chapters on irrigation economics, soils, reference evapotranspiration, crop evapotranspiration, pipe flow, pumps, open-channel flow, groundwater, center pivots, turf and landscape, drip, orchards, wheel lines, hand lines, surfaces, greenhouse hydroponics, soil water movement, drainage systems design, drainage and wetlands contaminant fate and transport. It contains summaries, homework problems, and color photos. The book draws from the fields of fluid mechanics, soil physics, hydrology, soil chemistry, economics, and plant sciences to present a broad interdisciplinary view of the fundamental concepts in irrigation and drainage systems design.

Download or read book Geotechnical Engineering written by V.N.S. Murthy and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2002-10-25 with total page 1066 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A must have reference for any engineer involved with foundations, piers, and retaining walls, this remarkably comprehensive volume illustrates soil characteristic concepts with examples that detail a wealth of practical considerations, It covers the latest developments in the design of drilled pier foundations and mechanically stabilized earth retaining wall and explores a pioneering approach for predicting the nonlinear behavior of laterally loaded long vertical and batter piles. As complete and authoritative as any volume on the subject, it discusses soil formation, index properties, and classification; soil permeability, seepage, and the effect of water on stress conditions; stresses due to surface loads; soil compressibility and consolidation; and shear strength characteristics of soils. While this book is a valuable teaching text for advanced students, it is one that the practicing engineer will continually be taking off the shelf long after school lets out. Just the quick reference it affords to a huge range of tests and the appendices filled with essential data, makes it an essential addition to an civil engineering library.
