Excerpt from Principles and Practice of Harbour Construction The object of this work is to set forth the general principles which should govern the design and construction of harbours, and to describe the various types of breakwaters and the methods of constructing them usually adopted in modem practice. Drawings of different kinds of breakwaters, including some of the more prominent existing works, are given; and, in addition to these, numerous diagrams and sketches have been introduced wherever it has been considered they would be useful in elucidating the descriptions given in the text. The chance of successfully opposing an enemy depends much upon knowledge, previously obtained, respecting his strength and mode of attack, and of the means and materials available for purposes of defence. It is, therefore, of importance that the harbour-engineer should be well informed respecting the forces against which he will have to contend, and also that he should possess an accurate knowledge of the structure and properties of the different materials which are available for use in harbour construction. The subjects of wind, waves, tides, currents, and materials have therefore been treated of at some length; and attention has also been directed to the more important physical conditions which affect harbour construction. The wide range of subjects which the profession of a civil engineer embraces, renders it imperative on every member of it to avail himself of all the help he can obtain.

Excerpt from The Hydraulic Principles Governing River and Harbor Construction During his professional career the writer has prepared numerous projects, and has answered many criticisms of the methods employed in the improvement of rivers and harbors. The following pages are derived principally from these sources. In replying to complainants, the author came to the conclusion that there was a commendable interest among the American people in the subject of the improvement of rivers and harbors, and a deplorable ignorance of the fundamental principles governing the flow of water in natural channels. Such is his apology for this publication. The ordinary textbook on hydraulics treats principally of the flow of water in pipes and conduits, and the ordinary engineer is apt to consider a river as merely a large conduit governed by the same laws, ignoring the change in conditions arising from the fact that the walls of a pipe are not affected by the velocity of flow through it, while the channels of a silt-bearing stream expand or contract with every change in the volume of discharge. This fact is ignored also by many writers on river hydraulics, whose textbooks contain more or less elaborate discussions of the formulas which are authoritatively stated as guides for determining the depth in a contracted waterway. In a rock cut, these formulas give as accurate results as they do when applied to a sewer or to a pipe, but in the alluvium of the Mississippi or Missouri rivers, scour caused by the contraction produces a radical change in the hydraulic radius. Water flowing in a river channel is governed by the same immutable laws as when flowing in pipes, but theses laws are so modified in the river by those governing the flow of sediment that effects are produced which are erroneously termed exceptions to general laws. For example if a given pipe is replaced by one of less diameter, the head (slope) must be increased to obtain the same discharge.
