Subsurface Utility Engineering and Plant Equipment Hire Services to Keep Your Project Costs under C

Author: Mason Whittaker

The site project managers require subsurface utility engineering services to locate subterranean utilities so that they are not damaged during construction. The subsurface utility engineering service will locate these utilities using Ground Penetration Radar (GPR) and other technology, allowing project managers to plan excavation and construction work accordingly, lowering project costs. Solo Resource Recovery is Australia's leading provider of subsurface utility engineering and plant equipment rental services for construction projects.

Subsurface utility engineering services by Solo Resource Recovery will cover the following:

  • Utility mapping at appropriate quality levels
  • Utility condition assessment
  • Utility coordination
  • Utility relocation design and coordination
  • Utility condition assessment
  • Utility design

Quality Levels of subsurface utility engineering services

Different Quality Levels of subsurface utility engineering services are available, depending on the degree of risk and the amount of information needed to design and implement a project. These quality levels are:

Quality Level D (QL-D): This is the most basic level of information for utility locations. It provides the site engineers an overall feel of the congestion of utilities. QL-D is useful for project planning.

Quality Level C (QL-C): This is the most common quality level of subsurface utility engineering. It involves surveying visible utility facilities, and correlating this information with the existing utility records. QL-C is very useful for rural projects where utilities are not prevalent, or are not too expensive to repair, or relocate.

Quality Level B (QL-B): It involves the application of appropriate surface geophysical methods to determine the utilities within the project limits. QL-B enables the site engineers to make decisions regarding foundations, storm drainage systems, footers, and other design features. The project engineers can make slight adjustments in design and achieve cost savings by eliminating utility relocations.

Quality Level A (QL-A): The level provides the highest level of accuracy to the project managers. QL-A makes full use of subsurface utility engineering techniques for the precise plan and profile mapping of underground utilities through non-destructive exposure of underground utilities. QL-A is the highest level of accuracy, and is generally not needed at every point along a utility’s path. Lesser quality levels may be appropriate at the points where fewer conflicts or no conflicts with utilities are expected.

Benefits of subsurface utility engineering (SUE) for you

Subsurface utility engineering (SUE) by Solo Resource Recovery will help you get a variety of benefits, such as:

  • Construction delays caused due to cutting, damaging, or discovering unidentified utility lines are reduced.
  • Unnecessary utility relocations are avoided.
  • Reduces delays to the projects due to waiting for utility work to be completed.
  • Accurate utility information allows highway engineers the visibility of the potential pitfalls.
  • Delays in project redesigning are eliminated when construction cannot follow the original design due to utility conflicts.
  • Subsurface utility engineering services enhance safety as excavation or grading work can be shifted away from the existing utilities.
  • As the location of utilities is known, unexpected conflicts are eliminated.
  • Construction delays are eliminated due to the cutting, damaging, or discovery of unidentified utility lines.
