The hydraulic design of sewers involves the movement of wastewater through sewer pipes. The design depends on the area where the sewage system is being developed. The design of sewer systems is important because inappropriate performance can cause pollution and disruptions in the urban living environment.

Topic include: Hydraulic Formulae, Minimum and Maximum Velocity of Flow, Hydraulic Elements of Circular Sewers, Egg Shaped Sewers and Other Sewer Sections.
