3.0 out of 5 stars confusing Aussie terminology
There are many terms that I never heard of and inconsistent use of units, the dread of every engineer.

3.0 out of 5 stars INTERESTING BUT NOT A CLASSICAL TEXTBOOK, February 28, 2006
I'm an engineer involved in the design of large hydraulic structures.

The reference textbooks ( "the bible" ) for open channel hydraulics is still the old "Open Channel Hydraulics" by Ven Te Chow.

This book is interesting but lacks for charts, diagrams and/or formulas for designing the hydraulic structures.

I suggest to buy it only after Ven Te Chow or Henderson's classical textbooks.

However please consider it if you're involved in the design of stepped spillways.
