Sobre IBD

''Earth Dams: A Study'' is a book written by Bassell and Burr in 1904. The book is a comprehensive study of earth dams, their construction, and maintenance. It covers topics such as the principles of dam construction, types of earth materials used in dam building, and the various methods of construction. The book also explores the importance of proper site selection, the design of spillways and outlet works, and the role of instrumentation in monitoring dam safety. The authors draw on their extensive experience in dam engineering to provide practical insights and recommendations for dam builders and operators. The book is a valuable resource for engineers, geologists, and anyone involved in the construction and maintenance of earth dams.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
