HYDRAULIC TABLES, CO-EFFICIENTS, and FORMULA 



for finding the Discharge of Water from Orifices, Notches, Weirs, Pipes, and 

 Rivers. With New Formulas, Tables and General Information on Rainfall, 

 Catchment-Basins, Drainage, Sewerage, Water Supply for Twvns and Mill 

 Power. By John Neville, Civil Engineer, M.R.I.A. Third Edition, care- 

 fully revised, with considerable Additions. Numerous Illustrations. Crown 

 8vo, 14s. cloth. 



" Alike valuable to students and engineers in practice ; its study will prevent the annoyance of 

 avoidable failures, and assist them to select the readiest means of successfully carrying out any 

 ^iven work connected with hydraulic cngineeringr." — Mini>tg J otirual. 



■• It is. of all English books on the subject, the one nearest to completion. . . . From the 

 good arrangement of the matter, the clear explanations, and abundance of formulaj, the carefully 

 calculated tables, and, above all, the thorough acquaintance with both theory and construction, 

 which is displayed from first to last, the book will be found to he an acquisition."— .(4 rr/nVcn".

'hydra ULIC MANUAL. Consi-sting of Working Tables and 

 Explanatory Te.\:t. Intended as a Guide in Hydraulic Calculations and Field 

 Operations. By Lewis D'A. Jackson. Fourth Edition, Rewritten and En- 

 larged. Large crown 8vo, 165. cloth. 



'■ The author has had a wide experience in hydraulic engineering, both in South America and 

 in India, and has been a careful observer of the facts which have coine under his notice, as well as 

 a painstaking collector and critic of the results of the experiments of others ; and from the great 

 mass of material at his command he has constructed a manual which may be accepted as a trust- 

 worthy guide to this branch of the engineer's profession. AVe can heartily recommend this 

 \olume to all who desire to be acquainted with the latest development of this important subject."— 



" The most useful feature of this work is its freedom from what is superannuated, and its 

 thorough adoption of recent experiments ; the text is, in fact, in great part a short account of the 

 great modern experiments." — Xatiire.
