Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Hydraulic Principles Governing River and Harbor Construction During his professional career the writer has prepared numerous projects, and has answered many criticisms of the methods employed in the improvement of rivers and harbors. The following pages are derived principally from these sources. In replying to complainants, the author came to the conclusion that there was a commendable interest among the American people in the subject of the improvement of rivers and harbors, and a deplorable ignorance of the fundamental principles governing the flow of water in natural channels. Such is his apology for this publication. The ordinary textbook on hydraulics treats principally of the flow of water in pipes and conduits, and the ordinary engineer is apt to consider a river as merely a large conduit governed by the same laws, ignoring the change in conditions arising from the fact that the walls of a pipe are not affected by the velocity of flow through it, while the channels of a silt-bearing stream expand or contract with every change in the volume of discharge. This fact is ignored also by many writers on river hydraulics, whose textbooks contain more or less elaborate discussions of the formulas which are authoritatively stated as guides for determining the depth in a contracted waterway. In a rock cut, these formulas give as accurate results as they do when applied to a sewer or to a pipe, but in the alluvium of the Mississippi or Missouri rivers, scour caused by the contraction produces a radical change in the hydraulic radius. Water flowing in a river channel is governed by the same immutable laws as when flowing in pipes, but theses laws are so modified in the river by those governing the flow of sediment that effects are produced which are erroneously termed exceptions to general laws. For example if a given pipe is replaced by one of less diameter, the head (slope) must be increased to obtain the same discharge.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Principles and Practice of Harbour Construction The object of this work is to set forth the general principles which should govern the design and construction of harbours, and to describe the various types of breakwaters and the methods of constructing them usually adopted in modem practice. Drawings of different kinds of breakwaters, including some of the more prominent existing works, are given; and, in addition to these, numerous diagrams and sketches have been introduced wherever it has been considered they would be useful in elucidating the descriptions given in the text. The chance of successfully opposing an enemy depends much upon knowledge, previously obtained, respecting his strength and mode of attack, and of the means and materials available for purposes of defence. It is, therefore, of importance that the harbour-engineer should be well informed respecting the forces against which he will have to contend, and also that he should possess an accurate knowledge of the structure and properties of the different materials which are available for use in harbour construction. The subjects of wind, waves, tides, currents, and materials have therefore been treated of at some length; and attention has also been directed to the more important physical conditions which affect harbour construction. The wide range of subjects which the profession of a civil engineer embraces, renders it imperative on every member of it to avail himself of all the help he can obtain.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hydraulics of Rivers, Weirs and Sluices: The Derivation of New and More Accurate Formulae, for Discharge Through Rivers and Canals Obstructed by Weirs, Sluices, Etc;, According to the Principles of Gustav Ritter Von Wex It was not deemed advisable to enlarge the work by the addi tion of mathematical tables as is usually done. On the contrary, such tables are of little value when dealing with general problems and in the author's opinion the most useful aid to the solution of the formulae here given is a copy of Barlow's tables of squares, cubes, square roots and cube roots, and Zimmermann's Rechen tafel, being a multiplication table of all numbers from I to 1000 by all numbers from I to 100. These universal tools should occupy a prominent place on every engineer's book shelf, and nothing better can be proposed here as labor saving devices. Attention is called to the valuable information collected in Appendix A, which constitutes a most complete exposition of all known older formulae for overfalls. This in itself is the best argument which can be presented in defense of the new formula to which this work is devoted.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Contributions to the Science of Hydraulic Engineering I give these disagreeable facts in regard to the physical geography of the foundation of New Orleans, and the peculiarities of the current of the mammoth river, which will certainly rearrange all of the materials which compose it, unless it shall be controlled, in order that the absurdity may be made obvious of building superficial levees, wharves, or houses upon the margin of the surface of the water, while this deep and terrific bottom current is left unchecked to undermine and engulf all the vain works of man erected upon stratified alluvium in which no rock is found even at a depth of 630 feet! And also that the minds of those most interested may be prepared to investigate the merits of the plan proposed in 'this essay for guarding them against this threatened danger.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Treatise on Water-Supply Engineering: Relating to the Hydrology, Hydrodynamics, and Practical Construction of Water-Works, in North America, With Numerous Tables and Illustrations A numerous band of engineering students are graduated each year and enter the field, many of whom choose the specialty of hydraulics, and soon discover that their chosen science is great among the most noble of the sciences, and that its mastery, in theory and practice, is a work of many years of studious acquire ment and labor. They discover also that the accessible literature of their profession, in the English language, is intended for the class-room rather than the field, and that its formulae are based chiefly upon very limited philosophical experiments of a century and more ago but partially applicable to the extended range of modern practice.
