What is excavation in a road construction?

Excavation in road construction refers to the process of removing earth, rock, or other materials from a site to create a foundation for the road. This involves digging trenches or pits to achieve the desired depth and grade, ensuring proper drainage and structural integrity. Excavation is essential for laying down subbase materials and utilities, and it helps prepare the area for subsequent roadway layers. Effective excavation practices also minimize environmental impact and ensure safety during construction.

Can a slab on grade be a floating slab?

In laymen's terms, yes. Many people use the terms Slab-on-grade & Floating Slab interchangeably. However, architects, engineers, and construction workers may have a more refined interpretation. Most commonly, a Slab-on-grade construction refers to a foundation in which the a concrete slab (also most commonly thickened at the perimeter) rest directly on grade (aka ground). Where as a Floating Slab foundation refers to a concrete slab resting directly on the grade independently placed within a stem wall (aka foundation wall), which extends down to the depth of the local frost line, running around the entire perimeter. The walls of the building/structure are then built upon this "stem wall". This latter type of construction creates a 'heat bubble' so that the floor is not as subject to the expansion due to frost and secures the structures walls by being supported below the frost line.
