This textbook covers the environmental and engineering aspects involved in the drainage of rainwater and wastewater from areas of human development, providing a descriptive overview of the complex issues involved, basic engineering principles, and analysis for each topic. Extensive examples are used to support and demonstrate the key issues explained in the text. Urban drainage deals comprehensively not only with the design of new systems, but also the analysis and upgrading of existing infrastructure, and the environmental issues involved. Urban Drainage is an essential text for undergraduate and postgraduate students, lecturers and researchers in the civil engineering fields of water engineering, environmental engineering, public health engineering, engineering hydrology, and related non-engineering disciplines. It will also be a useful reference for drainage design and drainage operation engineers in local authorities and the water utilities, and for consulting engineers.The only drawback is that as it is so up-to-date and practice based out will become outdated soon... but then there will be the 2nd Edition!
