Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a new design for The Panama Canal. The author, an engineer, was troubled by the high costs and time projections of existing plans. He proposes a canal with locks and a unique new system of dams and lakes that would be more navigable, cost far less, and take less time to build than any other plan. Historically, many plans for a Panama canal have been proposed and attempted. The author details some of these efforts, explaining their shortcomings, and the deep flaws in the engineering of the then-current Sea Level Canal plan. The author explains his own design in detail, addressing factors like prism dimensions, lake solutions, and dam and barrage creation. His innovative use of twin locks and under sluice dams would enable the passage of larger ships, protect against flooding, and provide water regulation and storage. By utilizing the existing French excavations and strategically placing spoil and creating submerged spoil areas, his plan is a more efficient use of resources and labor. The author also discusses the broader financial and political challenges of The Panama Canal. He argues for the government to treat the project as a business investment and to prioritize the completion of his design over more costly and time-consuming alternatives. This book is a valuable contribution to the history and engineering of The Panama Canal. It provides a detailed and innovative alternative plan that addresses the shortcomings of previous proposals and offers a more efficient and cost-effective solution to building a canal through Panama. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
