Architectura Hydraulica is a book written by Bernard Forest de Belidor and published in 1764. The book is a comprehensive study of hydraulic engineering and covers a wide range of topics related to the design, construction, and maintenance of hydraulic systems. The book is divided into three volumes, each of which covers a different aspect of hydraulic engineering. The first volume focuses on the theory of hydraulics and includes discussions on fluid mechanics, water pressure, and the properties of water. The second volume covers the design and construction of hydraulic systems, including dams, canals, and waterwheels. The third volume is dedicated to the maintenance and repair of hydraulic systems, including the use of pumps, valves, and other mechanical components.Architectura Hydraulica is considered a seminal work in the field of hydraulic engineering and is still widely cited and referenced by engineers and scholars today. The book is notable for its detailed illustrations and diagrams, which provide a clear understanding of the complex hydraulic systems described in the text. Overall, Architectura Hydraulica is an important historical work that provides valuable insights into the development of hydraulic engineering and the role of water management in the growth of modern civilization.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
