Torshel is committed to helping you choose the best type of shelter for both your home and budget. Both underground shelters and safe rooms offer maximum protection for storms. We encourage our clients to compare the quality of our shelters, methods of installation, and the reputation of the companies. There have been a few cases where other companies have poorly installed in-ground shelters that slip out of the ground. As a result, people can be terribly injured, and in some cases, death may occur. Some companies put profit over the lives of those who will use their products. At Torshel we work to make sure that we save and help protect as many lives as possible. We only install the highest quality storm shelters available in the market and stand behind our work by offering a 10-year warranty.

  • The New Mexico Office of Archaeological Studies

    7 Old Cochiti Road, Santa Fe, 87507, US

    About the Office of Archaeological Studies The New Mexico Office of Archaeological Studies (OAS) conducts archaeological research projects throughout New Mexico with a diverse group of 13 archaeologists and support staff. Our mission is to identify, interpret, and share information about prehistoric and historic sites across the state. OAS serves other State agencies and private organizations that require archaeological studies as part of their development projects. In addition, we provide ethnographic and historical research services and have an education outreach program that directly interacts with New Mexicans in order to answer their questions about archaeology, history, and the heritage of New Mexico. That program twice received the Society for American Archaeology’s Excellence in Public Education Award, in 2005 and again in 2012. In addition to client-initiated projects, OAS conducts research projects that are funded by grants and private donations. Many of the projects make use of a dedicated corps of volunteers or involve our many research associates. OAS provides training opportunities for university students and makes use of their skills in the latest technology. We also engage in educational outreach programs in surrounding states. OAS has five specialized laboratories, a research library, and a publications department. Our archaeomagnetic dating laboratory is one of two full-time laboratories in the United States that are dedicated to this dating technique and our low-energy plasma radiocarbon sampling laboratory enables us to nearly non-destructive date fragile archaeological materials. Departmental Overview The New Mexico Office of Archaeological Studies has been providing cultural resource management services throughout New Mexico since 1952. OAS continues to fulfill the Museum of New Mexico’s commitment to the highway archaeology program and has expanded to include a diverse client base. Our list of clients spans the breadth of private and public customers, yet much of the work that we have completed is for return clients. Since 1952 OAS archaeologists have conducted over 800 archaeological projects and produced nearly 1,000 reports. We have worked throughout New Mexico, adjacent states, and northern Mexico, with reports available on projects in all areas.

Frequently Asked Questions About Excavation Contractors

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

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.

How do I prepare my property for excavation?

Here's a checklist to prepare your property for an excavation project:
  • Clear the Area: Remove any obstacles, including vehicles, outdoor furniture, landscaping features, or structures, from the excavation zone and surrounding area.
  • Mark Existing Features: Identify and mark underground utilities, septic tanks, sprinkler systems, or other buried elements you want to protect.
  • Protect Landscaping: Use tarps or fencing to shield trees, shrubs, gardens, or other landscaping elements from damage.
  • Provide Access: Ensure the excavation contractor has clear access to the work area, including gates wide enough for equipment.
  • Discuss Logistics: Coordinate with the contractor regarding parking arrangements, material delivery, and any special instructions or concerns you might have.
By taking these steps, you can minimize disruptions, ensure a smoother excavation process, and protect your property.

How long does an excavation project take?

The duration of an excavation project varies significantly depending on factors like:
  • Project Size and Scope: Larger, more complex excavations naturally take longer.
  • Soil Conditions: Rocky or challenging soil types can slow down progress.
  • Site Accessibility: Limited access might require more time for maneuvering equipment and hauling materials.
  • Weather: Inclement weather can cause delays.
  • Permitting and Inspections: Waiting for permits or inspections can extend the timeline.
Your excavation contractor can provide a more accurate estimate after assessing your project's specifics.

What is the difference between topsoil and subsoil?

Topsoil and subsoil are distinct soil layers with different properties:
Topsoil: The uppermost layer, typically rich in organic matter, nutrients, and microorganisms. It's essential for plant growth and is often darker in color.
Subsoil: The layer beneath the topsoil, containing less organic matter and generally denser. It provides support for roots but is less fertile than topsoil.
During excavation, topsoil is often removed and preserved separately for later use in landscaping, while subsoil is typically used for backfilling or other less demanding applications.
