What’s Important to Discuss About Site Preparation and Grading
In this initial webinar, we focus on two important checklist action items that unless addressed early, can be pain points for every subcontractor.
Knowing how the general contractor has developed the project’s critical path is important in planning the effective use of a contractor’s resources. Concrete contractors should have a voice in the steps leading up to when they show up on projects. An important part of this critical path is the treatment of the sub-grade and pre-placement treatments preceding placement.
