Synopsis

This  unit provides an introduction to engineering hydraulics  in  the
Associate  Degree  and  Bachelor  of  Technology  (Civil  Engineering)
courses.  It  seeks  to provide the basic skills to  undertake  simple
analyses  and  designs  of  water impounding structures,  gravity  and
pumped pipeline systems, open channels and culverts. The unit provides
a  solid  grounding in the hydraulics of steady uniform incompressible
flow in pipes and channels.

There are no formal prerequisites for this unit but students would  be
advantaged with prior studies in basic engineering statics.
