This standard provides minimum criteria for the design and performance of membrane-covered cable and rigid member structures, including frame structures, collectively known as tensile membrane structures. It includes permanent and temporary structures. The requirements of this standard apply whether the tensile membrane structure is independent of or attached to another structure. This standard will be valuable to engineers and practitioners involved in the construction and/or design of tensile membrane structures

"Design and Construction of Urban Stormwater Management Systems" ("Manual of Practice No. 77") updates relevant portions of the "ASCE/WPCF Manual of Practice No. 37", "Design and Construction of Sanitary and Storm Sewers". This update is necessary due to the many changes taking place in the field, such as the use of microcomputers and the need to control the quality of runoff, as well as the quantity. In order to broaden the base of experience reflected in the Manual, each chapter was prepared by one or more authors with experience and expertise in the particular subject area. Thus, the Manual
