5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Reference Text, March 26, 2000
By 
Wayne Edgeloe (Bunbury,Western Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Design of Small Dams (Water Resources Technical Publication Series) (Hardcover)
This is an excellent reference text for all Engineers and designers involved in the design of dams. It is easy to read and provides numerous examples of the content applied to actual dams. Well recommended for students and operating professionals alike. A must for the personal library.

5.0 out of 5 stars a very useful engineering book, August 29, 2006
This review is from: Design of Small Dams (Water Resources Technical Publication Series) (Hardcover)
If I ever had to select the best books in Civil Engineering, I wouldn't hesitate to nominate Design of Small Dams among them. A classic book, a must-have publication. Its presentation is concise, yet comprehensive.

Every engineer should have a DSD in the office or at home: it can be used for filter design, water flow, field compaction controls and a series of day-to-day technical needs. It is a book not only for dam designers, but to all of those who need a handy book to solve engineering problems.

5.0 out of 5 stars The reference book for dam engineers, September 6, 2005
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Design of Small Dams (Water Resources Technical Publication Series) (Hardcover)
I'm a hydraulic engineer specialized in dam design.

Small Dams is still the best book concerning "general" dam engineering.

It covers all the key subjects and includes extremely useful charts, formulas and examples.

In our firm we have five copies of it and all the young engineers should study it by heart.

If you don't want to buy it you can download an electronic copy from the USBR site.

However I strongly suggest to buy it if you're involved in dam design.
