SITE PREP

Clearing and preparing Land before Structures or Roads are built. Ensuring the Site is stable, and ready for construction.

What Site Prep Involves:

  1. Land Clearing
    • Removal of vegetation: Trees, shrubs, grass, and stumps are cleared from the area.
    • Debris removal: Rocks, old structures, and any surface-level obstructions are hauled away.
  2. Grading and Earthwork
    • Excavation: Earth is moved to create a level surface or match the project’s elevation plan.
    • Filling and compaction: Low spots may be filled with soil or gravel, and all areas are compacted to prevent settling.
  3. Soil Testing and Stabilization
    • Testing: Soil is tested for load-bearing capacity, drainage, and stability.
    • Improvement: If needed, soil may be treated or replaced to ensure it can support concrete slabs, foundations, or roadbeds.
  4. Utility and Drainage Preparation
    • Trenching: Trenches are dug for water, sewer, gas, and electrical lines.
    • Drainage systems: Stormwater management systems like culverts, swales, or retention basins may be installed.
  5. Erosion Control
    • Measures such as silt fences or erosion control blankets are put in place to prevent soil erosion during construction.
  6. Access and Staging
    • Temporary access roads and Staging areas for Materials and Equipment.
