Description

Prepared by a Joint Task Force of the Environment and Water Resoruces Institute and the Committee on Pipeline Planning of the Pipeline Division of ASCE and the Collection Systems Subcommittee of the Technical Practice Committee of the Water Environment Federation (WEF) Gravity Sanitary Sewer Design and Construction provides theoretical and practical guidelines for the design and construction of gravity sanitary sewers. This new edition covers the administrative and organizational phases of sanitary sewer projects, as well as the parameters necessary to establish the design criteria, complete the design, and award a construction contract. The manual offers an in-depth discussion of commonly used trenchless and conventional methods of sanitary sewer construction. With its liberal use of charts, illustrations, and case studies, this practical manual is an indispensable resource for engineers in the field of sanitary sewer structural and hydraulic design.
