Site Preparation

Site Preparation is a pre-operational land-treatment process in construction technology and silviculture that systematically modifies the physical, biological, and environmental conditions of a site—through actions such as clearing, grading, drainage, and manipulation of surface materials and vegetation—to create suitable conditions for the safe, efficient, and durable establishment of built structures or forest regeneration.
