Excavation is a necessary part of underground construction. It is a difficult aspect of civil engineering and can be quite disruptive and costly. That’s why there have been several innovations over the years to improve the efficiency and safety of the excavation process whilst reducing cost across the board. Hydro vacuum excavation is one such innovation. Not only does this relatively new technique improve excavation speed, but it also reduces various safety and health risks. What is Hydro Vacuum Excavation? Hydro excavation is a non-mechanical, non-destructive digging technique that utilizes pressurized water with a specialized industry-grade vacuum to excavate soil from the selected area. The pressurized water is used to break up the soil and transform it into a slurry which is then removed with the vacuum and deposited into a debris tank. How Does it Work? Following are the steps of the hydro vacuum excavation process: Bringing the Hydro Evacuation Truck/Unit to the Site A Hydr...
