An aerial survey provides an excellent overview of a project's parameters and provides the site manager, supervisor, and builder with insightful pictorial and graphical data to ensure the highest quality of work.

A drone is primarily used in aerial surveys to inspect a site. Aerial surveys of a site are frequently required before any actual vacuum digging work can begin in a variety of industries and infrastructure, such as roads, railways, airports, railways, and industrial complexes. The complexity and scale of such projects present numerous challenges, which an aerial survey can assist in resolving. Vacuum digging ensures that crucial underground utilities are not damaged, and vacuum digging crews know exactly where to dig. Aussie Hydro-Vac Services has aerial survey equipment that can provide a complete picture of a construction site in just a few hours.

Best quality 3D images with elevations

Aussie Hydro-Vac Services' aerial survey drones capture images of the site before vacuum digging operations begin. Drones used for aerial surveys have sensors that collect a large amount of data for use by vacuum digging crews. The advanced capabilities of Aussie Hydro-Vac Services' aerial survey drones include photogrammetry software, which combines map data to create 2D and 3D images of the area for vacuum excavation, with accurate information about the surface, various volumetric measurements, elevations, and other relevant data. These images captured by aerial survey drones can show data related to potential drainage points as well as other data, such as elevation changes, which assist vacuum digging service providers in determining the best location for digging or storing materials. Aerial survey drones reduce time-consuming data collection in the field and can access difficult-to-reach areas.

Geotechnical investigations for determining the suitability of structures

Prior to laying foundations for any building project, a geotechnical investigation must be conducted. Geotechnical investigation by Aussie Hydro-Vac Services experts provides project managers with the necessary data pertaining to soil and rock properties, which is extremely useful in determining the suitability of the structure to be built upon a foundation. The excavation and construction industries use Aussie Hydro-Vac Services' geotechnical investigation services for a variety of purposes, including foundation design, soil and rock slope stability, piling design, earthworks and construction supervision, vacuum digging, soil structure interaction, highway and pavement designs, landfill, and excavation support design.

Reports by geotechnical investigations are rich in useful data

Geotechnical investigation is gradually gaining prominence in vacuum excavation services. Building services providers can use geotechnical investigations performed by Aussie Hydro-Vac Services to gather information about the physical properties of the ground for vacuum excavation, as well as for other use cases such as risk assessment from subsurface conditions, suitability of the site for the proposed works, and repair of existing structures.

Reports generated by Aussie Hydro-Vac Services can assist project managers in identifying issues and avoiding costly delays in development and engineering projects. These reports can help reveal a variety of potential issues caused by soft or weak ground, sinkholes, and groundwater. The reports can also be used to measure the thermal resistance of soil and backfill material for vacuum excavation, as well as geotechnical assessment to cover various types of investigations performed by geotechnical engineers.

Beneficial for community works

Aussie Hydro-Vac Services offers geotechnical investigations such as on-site soil stamping and material classification, cone penetration testing, auguring, pavement and asphalt reinstatement, and more.

The method will enable construction project managers to make educated choices about the best foundation and vacuum digging systems for their homes.

Vacuum digging for minimised damage to underground fixtures

Aussie Hydro-Vac Services' vacuum digging services are internationally accredited because the company's team of experts adheres to the highest standards in vacuum digging and non-destructive digging. Aussie Hydro-Vac Services' advanced techniques ensure that the underground fixtures are not damaged.

The vacuum digging technique provides clients with a high level of accuracy and safely exposes the location of underground services by using high-pressure air or water to loosen the soil. Once the soil and materials have been loosened, they are safely extracted using a high-power suction hose into a tank, which can be located away from the digging site if the area is congested. The materials can then be reused for backfilling or safely disposed of in accordance with regulations.

Get a cleaner and safer work site

Vacuum excavation is a low-cost, non-destructive excavation technique that employs advanced technology to create a safer and cleaner work environment.
