Site Prep / Grading

Large Site Prep (3D-GPS)

We use a Dozer with a 12' wide blade and 3D-GPS system along with Base/Rover/Data Collector to mark out site and elevations allows our team to build large sites with accuracy to the 1/10 of an inch. The site in this picture includes 2 acres of site prep for 2 storage buildings (62'x130' each) including 2%-4% grading for water shedding and roads between buildings and throughout storage facility site

Site Prep (Laser) / Building Pad(s)

 Site prep - This project was preparing for a 44' * 72' pole building. This included removal of some large pine trees, scraping black dirt (which was 3 ft. thick on one side), and bringing in 240 yards of Class 5 / fill, then backfilling and completing rough grading. A final finish grade and soil conditioning was completed after this.  

Grading

 Finish and Rough Grading - This project is preparing for 5" of crushed asphalt millings to build the driveway. Surrounding area was graded to control water shedding and soil was conditioned to prepare for seeding.
