Frequently Asked Questions

“Earthworks” is an umbrella term for a range of activities and services essential to preparing your site for construction and ensuring proper land utilisation.

This typically includes tasks such as excavation, land grading, and the construction of embankments. Earthworks also cover the removal of soil and rock, adding stability to slopes and terrain, and managing the drainage and erosion of a site.

For specialised projects, this can involve tunnelling and trenching, often necessary for laying foundations or infrastructure like water pipes and cables.

At A-Team Earthmoving, we treat each project with careful planning and precision to ensure compliance and a service that is tailored to your needs.

Examples of earthworks construction include:

  1. Excavation: Removing topsoil, rock or large amounts of earth to create foundations for buildings or other structures..
  2. Land Grading: Levelling or sloping the land to prepare for construction projects, improving drainage, and preventing erosion.
  3. Embankment Construction: Building up areas with soil or rock to support roads, railways, or to prevent water from entering specific areas.
  4. Trenching and Tunnelling: Creating trenches for the installation of utilities like water, gas, and electrical systems.
  5. Dredging: Removing sediment and debris from the bottoms of lakes, rivers, harbours, and other water bodies to improve navigation, increase waterway depth, or create new land.
  6. Soil Stabilisation: Techniques to increase the strength and durability of soil, reducing the risk of erosion or shifting, especially in high load-bearing areas.
  7. Compaction: Increasing the density of the soil, which provides stability and strength to support the construction of roads, foundations, and other structures.
The terms ‘excavation’ and ‘earthwork’ are often intertwined in the field of construction, but they describe distinct processes:

Excavation:

Specifically involves the removal of soil, rock, or other materials from a site, usually to create a cavity or hole. The purpose of excavation can range from forming foundations and basements to making way for underground utilities. It is a targeted action focused on the digging and extraction aspects of construction.

Earthwork:

Includes all activities that involve manipulating the earth’s surface. This includes excavation but extends to other operations such as grading, embankment construction, trenching, and compaction. While excavation is a key component of earthwork, the latter encompasses a wider range of tasks necessary for preparing and altering a construction site.
