Flood Collection

Hurricane season runs from June to November and can be a treacherous time for the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts. This was most recently demonstrated by the aftermath of Hurricane Helene and the deadly flooding that impacted North Carolina. ASCE Library has opened the following papers and publications to help civil engineers to address flooding and flood risks.

These papers are open to registered ASCE Library users through 11/30/2024. Register for Free
