Civil Engineering Guidelines for Planning and Designing
Hydroelectric Developments was prepared under the auspices of the
Hydropower Committee of the ASCE Energy Division. The Guidelines is
divided into five volumes. Volume 4 has not been published yet.
The first volume conces the planning and designing of dams and
related topics, and environmental issues. Volume 2 discusses the
design of waterways including such elements as intakes, tunnels and
shafts, penstocks, surge tanks, and gates. Volume 3 covers the
design of powerhouses and related topics. While the first three
volumes deal with conventional hydroelectric projects, the fourth
volume is conceed with the planning, designing, and construction
of small-scale hydroelectric projects. The last volume provides
information on the planning, designing, operation and maintenance
of elements conceed with pumped storage. This volume ends with a
discussion on different aspects of tidal power including design and
construction considerations. Thus, the Guidelines provides
comprehensive coverage and the necessary information on the type
and depth of studies needed for developing and designing
hydroelectric projects.
