Staking & Survey Support

Produce staking plans for surveyors to mark foundations, road alignment, cable routes, and panel arrays.

Structural Foundations

Design civil foundations tailored to site conditions (e.g., soils, frost depth, environmental constraints), selecting methods like ballasted, driven, helical, or drilled piles.

Site Prep Planning

Develop tree clearing, grubbing, and erosion control plans, ensuring environmental compliance (e.g., stormwater management, dust mitigation).

Technical Coordination

Integrate civil designs with electrical, structural, and mechanical systems, collaborating closely with engineers and project managers.

Construction Support & QA/QC

Support during pre-construction and construction phases by performing site visits, resolving design queries, conducting inspections, and ensuring implementation aligns with approved drawings.
