Earthmoving and machines Earth moving and Embankment Construction: Key Considerations Site Preparation and Material Requirements For successful embankment construction, the land must be adequately prepared. The embankments should be constructed on land that has been cleared of any vegetation, and where topsoil, silt, or loose soil that cannot be compacted has been removed. The materials used for the embankments should meet the specific requirements of the project, including: - Particle Size: Materials must be of a suitable size for compaction. - Plasticity: The materials should have the correct plasticity characteristics to ensure stability. - Strength: The materials should possess sufficient strength to support the load. Embankment Construction and Compaction Embankments must be built in layers, with each layer having a thickness designed to ensure adequate compaction. The following guidelines should be adhered to: - Layer Thickness: Each layer should be thick en...
