Primarily written as course material on flood control and drainage
engineering for advanced students of civil engineering, this new
fourth edition is again thoroughly revised. It accommodates recent
developments in remote sensing, information technology and GIS
technology. New added material deals with flood management due to
Tsunami waves, flooding due to dam failure and breaking of
embankments, application of dredging technologies, problems of
flood forecasting, flood plain prioritization and flood hazard
zoning, and engineering measures for flood control. Drainage
improvement is tackled, with particular regard to salinity and
coastal aquifer management from the ingress of sea water. The book
includes design problem-solving and case studies, making it
practical and applications-oriented. The subject matter will be of
considerable interest to civil engineers, agricultural engineers,
architects and town planners, as well as other government and
non-government organizations.
