User's Guide to SWMM, 13th Ed. (Jan 2011)

This User's guide to SWMM5 has been compiled from earlier sources as an interim measure, to bridge the gap until a complete SWMM5 manual, with theoretical background, is released (now way overdue). The present guide includes:

• A more narrowly-focused version (than appeared in the last edition 12, of the User's guide to SWMM 5) of the portions of the two 1988/9 user's manuals for SWMM 4, originally written by Wayne Huber, Bob Dickinson, Larry Roesner and John Aldrich, which - in the absence of a comprehensive theory component in the current SWMM 5 manual - are a guide to understanding the theory behind SWMM;
• The current SWMM 5 Manual (updated August 2010) - a practical user's guide - by Lew Rossman;
• The Stormwater Management Model Quality Assurance Report: Dynamic Wave Flow Routing by Lew Rossman;
• The SWMM Applications Manual by Jorge Gironas, Larry Roesner and Jennifer Davis, (downloaded September 2010); and
• Material derived from elsewhere, such as the SWMM Q&A archive (from the SWMM Users List).

The text from all these sources, and indeed from the previous edition of the SWMM 5 User's guide, has been rearranged and changed. Instructions on the use of the model and cautions known to the writer(s) are included. Much material in the original documentation deemed to be outdated, or irrelevant has been deleted.

For those who may be unfamiliar with some of the terminology used in these manuals, a Glossary is provided at the end of the volume.

This 905-page manual has been reduced in size from the original set of EPA manuals to a single, handy, hard-cover,  6" x 9" format. Most importantly, it has been fully indexed for quick reference. Additional glossary, conversion and other tables are included.

The User's Guide to SWMM (catalog # R242) is available for US$149.95 (CDN$149.95) plus shipping and handling. Multiple volume sets are available at discounted prices. We offer same-day shipping.
