Design and construction of urban stormwater management systems
This Manual 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 qu...
