Clay conditions can affect excavation stability, formation moisture control and compaction outcomes. Good outcomes come from stating specification targets and logistics assumptions in the commercial offer.
The aim is to avoid assumptions that turn into avoidable delays once work is underway.
It is used when work needs to be planned clearly, delivered safely, and aligned with practical constraints such as access, sequencing, or condition.
