The first major grading operation that moves large amounts of dirt to roughly establish the site's final shape and elevation.
The initial major earthwork operation that establishes approximate site grades and subgrades, moving large volumes of material to achieve the general form of the finished site. Rough grading is typically performed to within 0.5 feet of design grade, leaving fine grading to achieve final tolerances. It often includes cut-and-fill operations to balance earthwork on the site.
Rough grading was completed within two weeks using three scrapers and two bulldozers working in tandem across the 20-acre site.
