"This committee report surveys the current awareness, use, and usefulness of existing U.S. and international hydraulics standards and guides for practicing engineers. Composed largely from the responses to the committee's questionnaire, the report also addresses the question of whether additional standards and guides in hydraulics should be prepared. Prediction of scour at bridge piers; design of pump intakes and sumps; and calculations of friction and form losses in closed conduits are among the technical areas that guidelines or standards are recommended."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
