Looking For Ideas For An Excavation

Little

I def agree as well with working the engineers. I have a few friends who are civil engineers as well, i'm also two years into my associates in civil. They really need to get these kids that are straight out of school onto some jobsites and watch the operations.

Update,

This sucker is FINALLY going in the ground today, after a 2 month fight over the change order to build the tank to code and who was going to pay it(I won) I get to put this thing to rest today. This is the last bit of UG on the project from hell. I will post pictures later of the dig and the tank. Water was only an issue on the last 2 feet. I ended up using a 10-16ft trench box for the deepest portion, and placing a sump in the low corner of the hole with a 2" submersible pump going 24/day. The tank got reconfigured to be done in two parts: one 8'x16'x11' and one 6ft round wet well 17' deep, 12" blue brute connecting the two. Had to pull 3 ft of frost over the weekend to start the dig on monday, used a Thawsall and as Dayexco would say it worked slicker then snot on a doorknob.

Please I need the house idea to design a sewage disposal system in a water logged area, where the groud water table is at 1.2 meters to the surface, the component includes septic tank, soak away and check tanks

dayexco

Right, but if you get the guys that build these things in the field to tell you how to do them, you get all the info you need. No work, send a big bill, everyone wins

i'm guessing this is a HO that wants to go to the rental yard this wknd...get some equipment, stop by at home depot, grab some material, and do it himself.
