The land construction process

Phase 1: Pre-construction

Before civil works commence, the project team works closely with an array of consultants to develop detailed drawings and associated reports, all to the satisfaction of the authorities. The construction process cannot commence until Council and responsible authorities provide their approval.

Phase 2: Start Imminent

We have obtained all required approvals and civil construction will commence shortly. Preliminary work such as setting up temporary fencing and a general clean-up of the site will be undertaken before civil earthworks begin.

Phase 3: Construction Underway

At this stage in the civil construction process the site has been cleared. The first works to commence is the construction of the sewer pipelines and individual lot connections.

Drainage typically follows sewer and involves the construction of the drainage pipes and pits to ensure the stage will drain efficiently.

Phase 4: Underground Works

At this stage, drainage works will be nearing completion, and the water mains will be underway. This involves the installation of pipework, valves, hydrants, and individual lot connections.

Next, the road will begin to take shape. The subgrade, the foundation on which the road pavement is built, will be prepared and once complete the placement of the first layer of crushed rock will be laid.

Kerb and channel works, which is the concrete edging of the road pavement will follow the base course of crushed rocky.
