	Analysis And Design Practice Of Hydraulic Concrete Structures by Ghosh, Karuna Moy
	Price : Rs 195.00
	Your Price : Rs 165.75

This book provides students with a complete picture of how to apply the basic principles and techniques to the analysis and design of public utility hydraulic concrete structures that retain and contain aqueous liquid. It covers six types of structures of different functions.

The book discusses the design philosophy of structures, related to functional aspects and selection of materials of construction, with reference to the relevant clauses of codes of practice prescribed in Eurocodes 2 and BS 8007 and 8110. To prevent ingress and leakage the importance of impermeability of concrete in the design and construction of hydraulic structures has been emphasized.

The book describes the design of underground tanks for treatment of sewage “ a sedimentation tank and a circular digestion tank. The design parameters, dimensions, ground conditions for constructing a water reservoir to supply fresh potable water in rural districts are explained. In addition, the book illustrates the design of three more hydraulic structures, namely an immersed highway tunnel, a swimming pool and a gravity dam.

The book is intended for senior undergraduate students of civil engineering and postgraduate students specializing in structural design. It can also serve as a useful practical guide and an excellent reference for practising and consulting engineers involved in the design and execution of hydraulic concrete structures.ISBN 9788120343832
