Architectura Hydraulica is a book written by Bernard Forest de Belidor and published in 1764. The book is a comprehensive guide to hydraulic engineering and covers topics such as water supply, irrigation, drainage, and water power. It is divided into four sections, each of which focuses on a different aspect of hydraulic engineering. The first section covers the principles of hydraulics, including the properties of water and the laws of fluid mechanics. The second section covers water supply systems, including aqueducts, wells, and pumps. The third section covers irrigation and drainage systems, including canals, ditches, and drainage pipes. The fourth section covers water power, including water wheels and turbines. The book is illustrated with numerous diagrams and drawings, and includes detailed descriptions of hydraulic machinery and equipment. Architectura Hydraulica is considered a seminal work in the field of hydraulic engineering and continues to be studied and referenced by engineers and scholars today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
