ABSTRACT

Many find the study of water hydraulics difficult and puzzling (especially the licensure examination questions), but we know it is not mysterious or difficult. What it is, in real terms, is the function or output of practical applications of the basic principles of water physics. This book is another step in the direction of fulfilling a need for ground-level, basic water and wastewater operations and maintenance information; it is specifically designed to inform the reader and/or to prepare users for more advanced water hydraulics training.
