Informative AbstractThis book is compiled according to the editor's long-term practical experience in hydraulic engineering construction, paying attention to the needs of practical ability, highlighting practicality and pertinence. This book consists of eleven chapters, mainly introduces the practical construction techniques, construction project management methods and bidding of various typical hydraulic structures in water conservancy and hydropower projects. Including water conservancy and hydropower project construction organization, foundation engineering construction technology, construction technology, models, earth and rockfill dam and concrete dam construction technology, systems engineering construction technology building construction technology, the blasting engineering technique, ecological river construction technology, the typical processing construction technology application based on practice, water conservancy and hydropower engineering, water conservancy and hydropower engineering bidding and tendering in construction project management And so on.

This book offers a complete overview of the issues affecting the construction industry in the light of environmental concern and change. The two-volume set is divided into an analysis of the environmental issues and an analysis of engineering solutions. * Wide-ranging, comprehensive, structured treatment of a vast subject * The only book to cover both theory and practice across all relevant issues * International coverage, with case studies from Europe, America, Asia and Africa

This book is divided into four parts. The first part, Preliminaries, begins by introducing the basic theme of the book. It provides an overview of the current status of water resources utilization, the likely scenario of future demands, and advantages and disadvantages of systems techniques. An understanding of how the hydrological data are measured and processed is important before undertaking any analysis. The discussion is extended to emerging techniques, such as Remote Sensing, GIS, Artificial Neural Networks, and Expert Systems. The statistical tools for data analysis including commonly used probability distributions, parameter estimation, regression and correlation, frequency analysis, and time-series analysis are discussed in a separate chapter. Part 2 Decision Making, is a bouquet of techniques organized in 4 chapters. After discussing optimization and simulation, the techniques of economic analysis are covered. Recently, environmental and social aspects, and rehabilitation and resettlement of project-affected people have come to occupy a central stage in water resources management and any good book is incomplete unless these topics are adequately covered. The concept of rational decision making along with risk, reliability, and uncertainty aspects form subject matter of a chapter. With these analytical tools, the practitioner is well equipped to take a rational decision for water resources utilization. Part 3 deals with Water Resources Planning and Development. This part discusses the concepts of planning, the planning process, integrated planning, public involvement, and reservoir sizing. The last part focuses on Systems Operation and Management. After a resource is developed, it is essential to manage it in the best possible way. Many dams around the world are losing some storage capacity every year due to sedimentation and therefore, the assessment and management of reservoir sedimentation is described in details. No analysis of water resources systems is complete without consideration of water quality. A river basin is the natural unit in which water occurs. The final chapter discusses various issues related to holistic management of a river basin.

The 2016 International Conference on Civil, Architecture and Environmental Engineering (ICCAE 2016), November 4-6, 2016, Taipei, Taiwan, is organized by China University of Technology and Taiwan Society of Construction Engineers, aimed to bring together professors, researchers, scholars and industrial pioneers from all over the world. ICCAE 2016 is the premier forum for the presentation and exchange of experience, progress and research results in the field of theoretical and industrial experience. The conference consists of contributions promoting the exchange of ideas between researchers and educators all over the world.
