Groundworks, materials and equipment

Good surfacing depends on sound preparation. This collection shows excavation, sub-base materials, rollers, paving equipment and other parts of the construction process.

Not every project needs the same depth or construction build-up. Existing ground conditions, drainage and expected loads determine the approach.
