Construction Field Works

Construction fieldworks involve various tasks performed on construction sites. For light construction like residential buildings, common fieldworks include carpentry, plastering, scaffolding, formworks, masonry, steel reinforcement, concrete works, roofing, electrical works, piping, tiling, glass installation and painting. Heavy construction fieldworks for larger projects include rock excavation, blasting, paving, pile driving, installing cofferdams, caissons and dewatering activities. The specific fieldworks depend on the type and scale of the construction project.

Heavy Construction Types

• Rock
excavation Field
works
 Hard rock tunnel
boring, cutting,
drilling and blasting
Heavy Construction Types

• Paving works
 Excavation and
area grading to the
desired grade and
drainage.
 Placement and
aggregate base
course compaction.
 Asphalt mix
application to finish
the surface.
Heavy Construction Types

• Pile driving
 Piles are installed
by either driving,
drilling, vibration or
jacking.
Heavy Construction Types
• Cofferdams
 Cofferdams is a
temporary structure
designed and
constructed to support
ground and keep
groundwater or water
above ground level away
from an excavation.
Heavy Construction Types
• Caissons
 A Caisson is a watertight
structure used for retaining
water in order to work on the
foundations for bridges, piers,
and other structures. Generally
speaking, the water is pumped
out to create a completely dry
work environment. Some
caissons can be open-air
caissons, whereas others may
use compressed air to keep the
mud and water out. Installation
involves pushing it into the
mud, until it reaches clay or
another solid foundation.

Dewatering
 Dewatering and construction
dewatering are terms used to
describe the action of
removing groundwater or
surface water from a
construction site. Normally the
dewatering process is done by
pumping or evaporation and is
usually done before
excavation for footings or to
lower water table that might
be causing problems during
excavations.
