许多世纪以来,中国的许多古城一再遭受严重的洪水,这促使人们采取各种措施来减轻洪水的影响。这些措施包括结构性措施,例如建造围墙、水坝和堤坝,并植树以巩固土壤;安装排水系统和蓄水能力;提高沉降水平和加固建筑材料。非结构性措施包括警报系统和紧急疏散计划。城市规划和建筑设计已经发展到减少洪水破坏,政府官员被任命为管理防洪系统的具体责任。鉴于现代忽视这些行之有效的方法所造成的严重后果,本文考察了中国洪水泛滥的历史经验,并证明其在今天仍然具有现实意义。在简要的历史回顾之后,详细讨论了各种防洪措施。本文以古代方志中的城市规划为例。
Over many centuries, the repeated and serious flooding of many of China's ancient cities has led to the development of various measures to mitigate the impact of floods. These have included structural measures, such as the construction of walls, dams and dykes, with tree planting for soil consolidation; installation of drainage systems and water storage capacity; the raising of settlement levels and the strengthening of building materials. Non-structural measures include warning systems and planning for emergency evacuation. Urban planning and architectural design have evolved to reduce flood damage, and government officials have been appointed with specific responsibilities for managing the flood control systems. In view of the serious consequences of modern neglect of these well-tried methods, this paper examines China's historical experience of flooding and demonstrates its continuing relevance for today. A brief historical survey is followed by a detailed discussion of various flood prevention measures. The paper is illustrated by city plans from ancient local chronicles.
