Excavation & Grading Handbook |
| Revised Edition |
| Nicholas E. Capachi |
| This revised edition explains how to handle all types of excavation, grading, paving, pipeline and compaction jobs: reading plans and topo maps, following crows feet, setting cut and fill stakes, grade pins and string line (with both conventional and laser levels), and actually doing the work - whether it's a highway, subdivision, commercial, or trenching job.
Covers improvements in the trade -- the use of laser levels, GPS positioning, and sonar as well as new techniques for excavating and grading.
This book includes three chapters explaining how to lay, remove, or rip and compact asphaltic concrete. Another four describe the best ways to install water, drain and sewer pipe and construct manholes. This edition has been completely rewritten to cover new materials, equipment and techniques: filter fabrics, laser levels, slip form pavers, curb machines and reclaimers. It includes hundreds of tips, pictures, diagrams and tables that every excavation contractor and supervisor can use.
