More about Excavation
The Excavation Process
The process of excavation can be used for a variety of projects and landscaping. Bridge Construction knows how to approach every project with precision and complete all the necessary steps to ensure your project is prepped.
Each excavation project will look a little different but there are some typical steps that are involved when you hire an excavation contractor.
Project planning: Just like with any project, planning preparation is essential. Doing a site survey will help the project manager, excavators, and developers have a clear picture of what the project is going to look like. Excavation helps you to have a clean starting point, but having some planning to make sure it is level and avoid potential hazards is necessary before just completely flattening a space.
Surveying ground and top levels: Surveying the ground will give excavators an idea of where they can navigate their equipment and what debris needs to be removed. They may also check the ground for soil makeup before they begin digging.
Marking the boundariesAfter surveying the area, boundaries will be set where excavation can take place. Excavators and construction teams will take precise measurements and clearly mark the area before any large equipment starts to be used.
Excavation of layers to the appropriate level: As excavation continues, more layers will become unearthed and visible. It is important to keep track of these layers and any significant findings that may be important to report.
Dressing the loose soil: The soil must be measured for density and quality and what reinforcements may be needed. Trenching and shoring may be additional actions that need to be taken for areas with unstable soils.
Dealing with the removed rock and debris: After the excavation team removed large rocks or piles of dirt, what happens to it now? The excavation team will need to break down the rock into smaller pieces to be transported away from the property.
Backfilling and compaction: Some excavation needs to be filled back in after digging to certain levels. If you needed to remove bad soil or put in better soil for a garden or yard, backfilling will help fill back in the area so it is stable and ready to use.
Restoration: Cleaning up and making the space look visually appealing again is the most important step of the process. Restoration includes cleaning up debris, removing trash, moving large equipment, and preparing the site for further construction.
Committed To Safety
Keeping workers and surrounding buildings safe is essential during excavation. Bridge Construction prioritizes safety and only uses proper equipment to remove parts of the earth. We are continuing to learn and improve our services, but taking proper precautions will always remain important. If you are excavating your backyard, you will have peace of mind about the standing of your house and other landscaping.
