Frequently Asked Questions About Excavation Contractors

Find answers to common questions about excavation contractors and hiring excavation professionals in the USA.

What is a soil engineer, and do I need one?

A soil engineer is a professional specializing in analyzing soil properties and their behavior under various conditions. They play a crucial role in:
  • Determining Soil Suitability: Assessing whether the soil can support the intended structure or load.
  • Recommending Foundation Types: Advising on the appropriate foundation design based on soil characteristics.
  • Addressing Drainage and Erosion Issues: Providing solutions to manage water runoff and prevent erosion.
  • Evaluating Slope Stability: Assessing the risk of landslides or soil movement on slopes.
You might need a soil engineer for projects involving:
  • Building on challenging soil types (expansive clay, loose sand, etc.)
  • Constructing large or complex structures
  • Excavating near slopes or retaining walls
  • Addressing drainage or erosion concerns
Your excavation contractor or local building department can advise if a soil engineer is necessary for your project.

What is the best time of year for excavation?

The ideal time for excavation can depend on your location and climate. Generally:
  • Spring and Fall: Often considered favorable due to moderate temperatures and drier soil conditions.
  • Summer: Can be suitable, but hot weather can make working conditions challenging and might require additional measures (shade, hydration) for workers.
  • Winter: Excavation in winter can be more difficult due to frozen ground, snow, and potential delays caused by inclement weather. It might also require specialized equipment or techniques.
Consult with your excavation contractor to determine the best timing for your project, considering local weather patterns and potential seasonal constraints.

How do I calculate how much dirt I need for fill?

To calculate the volume of dirt (fill) needed, follow these steps:
  1. Determine the Area: Measure the length and width of the area you want to fill. Multiply them to get the area in square feet (or meters).
  2. Determine the Depth: Measure the difference between the existing grade and the desired grade (how much you need to raise the ground). This is the depth of fill required.
  3. Calculate Volume: Multiply the area (step 1) by the depth (step 2) to get the volume in cubic feet (or meters).
  4. Account for Compaction: Fill dirt compacts when it settles, so add 10% to 25% to the calculated volume to account for compaction. The exact percentage depends on the type of fill material.
For complex projects or uneven terrain, consult an excavation contractor or surveyor for accurate volume calculations.

What is the excavation process?

A typical excavation process involves several key steps:
  1. Planning and Surveying: Defining the excavation area, marking utility lines, and determining the required depth and grade.
  2. Site Preparation: Clearing vegetation, removing obstacles, and ensuring site accessibility.
  3. Excavation: Using appropriate equipment (excavators, backhoes, etc.) to remove earth and create the desired excavation.
  4. Hauling and Disposal: Transporting excavated material to designated disposal sites, complying with environmental regulations.
  5. Backfilling and Compaction: Refilling the excavation with suitable material and compacting it to achieve the required density and stability.
  6. Grading and Finishing: Leveling and shaping the surface to the final grade for landscaping or construction.
The process might vary depending on the project's complexity and specific requirements.
