Insane amount of black dirt we had to pull out before we reached clay.
What happens here
Engage a heavy-duty excavator to commence the primary excavation for the warehouse foundation. The objective is to dig a 'foundation hole' to a depth of approximately 5 feet, targeting the stable 'base clay' layer. This requires skilled operation of the machinery to ensure the trench dimensions and depth meet engineering specifications for the building's foundation. The excavator systematically removes large quantities of earth, creating the initial structural outline for the warehouse.
Goal: Dig the foundation trench to the specified depth for the new warehouse.
