Surveying and Design

Before any subsoil drainage system can be installed, a soil survey and a topical survey is needed.

Soil samples need to be collected from different depths.

An accurate topographical map will be produced using RTK GPS equipment to show contours and drainage points.

With this information drain spacing, drain depth, grade of each individual drainage line, backfill material and backfill material depth will be established and implemented in the final design.

The final design will be uploaded to the Trimble GPS Equipment of the drainage machine to be used with the installation of the drainage system.
