STEP -1
SITE INSPECTION PROCESS
Conditions
a. If you are constructing your home from
scratch.
b. Your land must be clearly demarcated by a local admin/land
revenue inspector.
c. Level up your land equality.
If this is your plot…
i.
Take measurement
of approach road width.
ii.
In your mobile
smartphone compass checks the site to the road-facing direction. Take a snapshot of
the same by standing in the center of your land and face to the road.
Find out approximate NGL & Road level difference using thread, Rods/Regs & right-angle triangle.
STEP -2
LAND AREA SURVEY
Conditions
a. Boundry corners must be well-bounded
b. Plot must be leveled up equally.
i.
Take measurement
of all the sides of the plot.
ii.
Take measurement
of both the diagonals of the plot.
iii.
Figure out at
least one perpendicular angle while considering the plot for getting the plot
in proper shape.
STEP -3
SOIL TEST USING NON ENGINEERING TECHNIQUE
i.
If the land is located in a damp
location. Or any large water body is located nearby then better would be to
consider a site soil test for finding out the soil bearing capacity.
ii.
Check foundation works of nearby
construction site you may get the soil inspection report done by them.
iii.
Site technique is far cheaper and easy
to understand …
Take a steel rod of die 16mm or more and
length 5’ – 6’ long with chisel shape in front..
You also need a ball pin hammer of 5 kg weight.
Strike the rod perpendicular to the land.
If the rod inserts easily inside the earth in
2-3 blows then the soil strata is loose.
The SBC Must below as well.
A soil test is highly recommended for such soil
condition for designing the foundation.
If the rod inserts inside the earth surface
after 25-35 blows then soil condition is moderate. Soil test is not
recommended.
If the rod doesn’t insert inside the earth
then the strata is too hard and you may need digging equipment while
foundation works.
You are recommended to this activity in
numerous places of your plot to check the soil condition.
After this you may go ahead and fill
up this inspection form/checklist of site inspection for construction works.
