Water Supply and Sewerage Book by E. W. Steel and Terence J. McGhee

It is both a privilege and a formidable challenge to follow in the footsteps of Professor Steel, whose text has been a standard in the field of sanitary engineering for over forty years. In writing the book the original format has been followed. The emphasis is upon design of water and sewerage works, and the intended audience is the undergraduate student in Civil Engineering. The text has been thoroughly revised to incorporate the latest techniques of water and wastewater conveyance and treatment, and outdated materials and methods have been dropped. The present author trusts that the revised work will continue to serve the needs of the profession in the same fashion as did the earlier editions, and will welcome comments and suggestions from users of the text.
