About the Authors
The WEF Technical Practice Committee was created by the Federation Board of Control on October 11, 1941. The primary function of the Committee is to originate and produce, through appropriate subcommittees, special publications dealing with technical aspects of the broad interests of the Federation. The ASCE Technical Practices Committee develops manuals and reports that consist of an orderly presentation of facts on a particular subject, supplemented by an analysis of limitations and applications of these facts.
