OVERVIEW

This glossary is divided into three parts:

• Overview,

• Glossary, and

• References.

It is not intended that all the terms in this glossary be
rigorously accurate or complete. Realistically, this is impossible.
Depending on the circumstance, a particular term may have several
meanings; this can never change.

The primary purpose of this glossary is to define the terms
found in the Highway Drainage Guidelines and Model Drainage
Manual i
n a manner that makes them easier to interpret and
understand. A lesser purpose is to provide a compendium of terms
that will be useful for both the novice and the more experienced
hydraulics engineer. This glossary may also help those who are
unfamiliar with highway drainage design to become more
understanding and appreciative of this complex science and
facilitate communication between the highway hydraulics engineer
and others.

Where readily available, the source of a definition has been
referenced. For clarity or format purposes, cited definitions may
have some additional verbiage contained in double brackets [ ].
Conversely, three "dots" (. . .) are used to indicate where some
parts of a cited definition were eliminated. Also, as might be
expected, different sources were found to use different hyphenation
and terminology practices for the same words. Insignificant changes
in this regard were made to some cited references and elsewhere to
gain uniformity for the terms contained in this glossary, e.g.,
"groundwater" vs. "ground-water" or "ground water," and "cross
section area" vs. "cross-sectional area."
