Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE) quality levels explained

07.08.25 / Uncategorized

ASCE standard guidelines for SUE is broken into 4 different quality levels of accuracy for underground utility information. These range from Quality Level (QL) D (the lowest level) to Quality Level A (the highest level). The use of quality levels allows both facility owners and design engineers the flexibility to decide what level of accuracy they would like for any subsurface infrastructure to best design around. Accurate knowledge of what is underground helps reduce conflicts encountered during construction and thus saves the project owner both time and money in the end.

Let the CD&C, Inc. SUE team take the guesswork out of your next design project! 225-765-1802 * www.cdcbr.com * info@cdcbr.com

This SUE quality level A job took a bit more time than expected but our guys had the equipment and manpower to get the job done.

Accuracy is key!

07.20.23 / Uncategorized

Accuracy is always the key component of any survey effort. Today, our certified drone pilot teamed up with our field crew to survey approximately 90 acres. Traditional survey means were used to pick up the property lines and our drone was flown to pick up all of the improvements on the property. Some days it takes a team of technology and manpower, but accuracy is always our top priority.

Drone Topographic Data in South LA

05.30.23 / Uncategorized

We had some beautiful days back in January to use our drone to capture topographic data in South Louisiana. Our remote sensing guys were able to fly 16 acres of this particular project and will be able to produce data with a +/- 0.05’ accuracy. It’s good to have ‘another tool in the toolbox’ for our Survey Department. #drone #keepflying #toolbox #civildesignandconstruction
