Abstract
In this paper, after the mention of alternative policies that might control the planning and conduct of instructional laboratories in general, it is suggested how either of these policies might be adapted to hydraulic laboratories. Probably because of these diverse possibilities there seems to be no accepted or standardized layout for such laboratories. Nevertheless, it might be possible to derive guidance from the record of development in one particular technological institution, showing how equipment and operation have responded to changing circumstances. The institution chosen for study in the paper is the Faculty of Engineering of the Fouad I University, Giza, Egypt, where, twice within the space of thirty years, the staff have had the opportunity of planning completely new hydraulic laboratories. Some units of experimental equipment are described, and comments are added giving the results of experience in the conduct of the laboratories. To show the interrelation between instruction and research in such an institution, the findings of some post-graduate research projects carried out there are summarized.
