Planning for Earthwork ConstructionEvery construction project is a unique undertaking. Therefore, planning is undertaken undertaking. Therefore, planning is undertaken to understand the problems and to develop courses of action.

Planning Understand project objectives and requirements Define work elements Develop safe construction methods and avoid hazards
Improve efficiency Improve efficiency Coordinate and integrate activities Develop accurate schedules Respond to future changes Provide a yardstick for monitoring and controlling execution of project activities

Variables related to the work: The quantities involved, basically volume or weight The haul distances The grades for all segments of the hauls
The work hazards The work hazards Various contractual and legal restraints

Typical constraints: Contract requirements described in the drawings and technical specifications, completion dates, etc. Legal requirements (OSHA, licensing, environmental control)control) Physical and/or environmental limits of the job
Fabrication and material storage Sequencing of construction operations (traffic control) Climatic conditions that limit when certain activities can be performed, such as paving or stabilization

Earthwork Planning Quantity Survey The process of calculating the quantity of materials required to build a project Mass Excavation The requirement to excavate Mass Excavation The requirement to excavate substantial volumes of material, usually at considerable depth or over a large area Structural Excavation Excavation undertaken in support of structural element construction, usually involves removing materials from a limited area

Average Grade
Average Grade Percent = Change in Elevation * 100
Grade affects equipment efficiency and production rates.
Average Grade Percent = Change in Elevation * 100Average Haul Distance

Pricing Earthwork Operations The cost of earthwork operations will vary with the kind of soil or rock encountered and the methods used to excavate, haul, and place the material in its final deposition It is usually not too difficult to compute the volume of earth or rock to be movedbe moved Estimating the cost of actually performing the work depends on both a careful study of the project plans and a diligent site investigation
How much material must be moved?What equipment is required? And daily cost of the equipment?What is the estimated daily production of the crew?
