Description

Design and Construction of Urban Stormwater Management Systems (Manual of Practice No. 77) updates relevant portions of the ASCE/WPCF Manual of Practice No. 37, Design and Construction of Sanitary and Storm Sewers. This update is necessary due to the many changes taking place in the field such as the use of microcomputers and the need to control the quality of runoff as well as the quantity. In order to broaden the base of experience reflected in the Manual, each chapter was prepared by one or more authors with experience and expertise in the particular subject area. Thus, the Manual aids the practicing engineer by presenting a brief summary of currently accepted procedures relating to the following areas: 1) Financial services; 2) regulations; 3) surveys and investigations; 4) design concepts and master planning; 5) hydrology and water quality; 6) storm drainage hydraulics; and 7) computer modeling.
