Completion of Earthworks calculations
Site Servicing Design includes
Site Servicing Design includes the preparation of calculations and drawings to support the water, sanitary, and storm sewer infrastructure required to service the proposed development. Site Grading involves ensuring adequate surface drainage by establishing the ground-level elevations for buildings, parking lots, and all other areas within the project scope. The outputs are typically Site Grading and Servicing Plans including all associated notes and details for regulatory approvals and construction. To create an efficient site grading design, earthworks calculations can be performed to determine the amount of dirt that needs to be moved, imported, or exported to facilitate the development.

Erosion and Sedimentation Control (ESC)
Preparation of ESC plans, including most appropriate best management practices (BMPs)
Review and approval of on-site design modifications
Completion of ongoing inspection / monitoring throughout construction
Erosion and sedimentation are naturally occurring processes
Erosion and sedimentation are naturally occurring processes, but they are sped up by land development activities. A properly designed and implemented ESC plan can minimize the impact that these activities have on our natural environment. In this regard, KWA can help to ensure an effective ESC strategy through the selection and design of the most appropriate best management practices (BMPs), the review and approval of on-site design modifications, and ongoing inspection / monitoring of these measures throughout the duration of construction.

Stormwater Management/ Low Impact Design (LID)
Preparation of stormwater management reports and drawings
Completion of calculations and modeling to ensure adherence to regulatory requirements, including water quality and water quantity controls
Detailed design of stormwater management ponds and retention facilities
Detailed design of water quality controls
Detailed design of Low Impact Design strategies, including bioswales, infiltration trenches, and perforated pipe systems
Site Servicing Design includes

To create an efficient site grading design, earthworks calculations can be performed to determine the amount of dirt that needs to be moved, imported, or exported to facilitate the development.

Functional Servicing Design
Preparation of functional servicing reports (FSRs)
Review of existing infrastructure available to support the proposed development
Completion of preliminary water and sanitary demand calculations
Completion of Fire Underwriters Survey (FUS) calculations
Completion of conceptual servicing layouts
Completion of stormwater management calculations
Completion of conceptual site grading
The goal of functional servicing design is to ensure that
The goal of functional servicing design is to ensure that the existing infrastructure has the ability to service the proposed development and, if not, identify the constraints and any improvements that are required to proceed. This involves review of the existing infrastructure (storm sewer, sanitary sewer, and watermain) as well as iterative site grading and servicing design to find the most cost effective solution for development. These analyses are usually completed prior to detailed design, but cover many of the same details including stormwater management calculations, water and sanitary demand calculations, conceptual servicing layout designs, and preliminary site grading design.

Contract Administration
Provide constructability options to clients and contractors in the event of site conflicts; prepare contract progress payment certifications; negotiate and prepare change order documentation; tracking schedules and keeping the client constantly abreast of project status and progress.

Tendering Preparation and Inspection
Assist with bid assessment and contract award; conduct site visits; assess project conformity to approved plans and compile inspection reports.
