Looking to clear a site for your newest project in Perth? Before you begin, it’s important to understand the challenges that come with earthmoving, demolition and excavation.
Environmental Challenges
Soil Conditions: The varying soil conditions across WA may complicate clearing, requiring different techniques and approaches. Effectively evaluating soil types will prevent erosion and degradation.
Vegetation: Land with dense vegetation and undergrowth must be thoroughly cleared, removing all root systems that may interfere with construction. This has to be cleared correctly to avoid damage to surrounding habitats and ecosystems.
Environmental Regulations: In WA, the removal of native vegetation is strictly regulated. Before clearing certain areas, you must obtain an appropriate permit. This applies to all Indigenous and protected land.
Weather Conditions: Undesirable weather conditions, like muddy grounds and extreme heat, raise safety concerns that can affect the way machinery should be operated.
Operational/Site Challenges
Debris Disposal: Branches, rubble and bricks should be properly disposed of under WA’s Waste Management Guidelines. If left lying around, waste will clutter your site, creating potential hazards for workers and the public.
Site Access: In busy areas with heavy traffic, you must establish safe and convenient site access points, blocking off certain areas for safety.
Proximity to Buildings/Structures: When operating large and loud equipment, it’s important to communicate with others, reducing noise pollution and disturbances as necessary.
Identifying Hazards: There are many safety concerns associated with falling debris, operating heavy machinery and working on contaminated land. There may also be underground utilities beneath homes, like water, gas and electrical lines that need to be avoided.
