Design of Small Dams (Third Edition). A Water Resources Technical Publication
The book presents instructions, standards, and procedures for use in the design of small dams. It is intended to serve primarily as a guide to safe practices for those concerned with the design of small dams in public works programs in the United States. The book will serve this purpose in three ways: (1) It will provide engineers with information and data necessary for the proper design of small dams, (2) it will provide specialized and highly technical knowledge concerning the design of small dams in a form that can be used readily by engineers who do not specialize in this field, and (3) it will simplify design procedures for small earthfill dams. The purpose of this third edition of Design of Small Dams has been changed in scope and intent from that of the second edition. The title Design of Small Dams has been retained even though some of the information in the third edition relates to large dams. Many of the theoretical concepts presented can be applied to large or small structures, however, it is recommended that the procedures and methods presented be used only as guidelines. When preparing the design of large or complicated structures, especially those located where they create a high hazard, the owner should rely on experienced dam engineers, experienced, consultants, or refer to more detailed references.
