Abstract

Abstract A dynamic programming method for designing the least expensive network of sewers that will drain water from a number or discrete sources is presented. The positions of sewer junctions, the diameters and slopes of the sewers are all considered as variables. Results of using the method for the design of three storm sewer networks are presented and discussed.
