Grading & Earthwork Design

Dyer Engineering

At Dyer Engineering, we specialize in Grading and Earthwork Design, providing innovative and cost-effective solutions for land development projects throughout Dallas/Fort Worth, TX.

As a leading civil engineering firm, we understand that proper grading and earthwork design are critical for the stability, drainage, and long-term sustainability of any construction project.

Whether you are developing residential, commercial, industrial, or municipal properties, we ensure that land is shaped, stabilized, and prepared to support safe and efficient development. With state-of-the-art engineering techniques and a commitment to precision, our grading and earthwork solutions help minimize construction costs, prevent erosion, and optimize site functionality.

Our Grading & Earthwork Design Services

Dyer Engineering offers a full range of grading and earthwork services, ensuring that each project is executed with precision and efficiency.

Site Grading & Elevation Design

Our engineers carefully analyze topographic data, soil conditions, and water drainage patterns to create grading plans that:

  • Optimize site usability and minimize grading costs
  • Ensure proper slopes and elevations for drainage and accessibility
  • Prevent water pooling and erosion-related damage
  • Create a stable foundation for buildings and infrastructure

We design grading plans that meet regulatory requirements while maximizing construction efficiency and cost-effectiveness.

Cut-and-Fill Analysis & Balancing

Managing excavation and fill materials effectively is crucial for reducing costs and environmental impact. Our services include:

  • Calculating the volume of earth that needs to be moved
  • Minimizing the need for importing or exporting soil
  • Balancing cuts and fills to reduce grading expenses
  • Optimizing soil redistribution to enhance site stability

By carefully analyzing cut-and-fill requirements, we help reduce construction costs and improve project efficiency.

Earthwork Compaction & Soil Stabilization

Compacted and stable soil is essential for preventing structural failure, settlement, and erosion. Our team provides:

  • Soil compaction design and testing to enhance load-bearing capacity
  • Lime and cement stabilization for weak or expansive soils
  • Geotechnical assessments to determine soil stability
  • Erosion control strategies to prevent sediment displacement

We ensure that all earthwork activities meet geotechnical engineering standards, reducing the risk of foundation failure or soil movement.

Drainage & Stormwater Management Integration

Proper grading must be designed in coordination with stormwater management systems to prevent water accumulation and flooding. Our services include:

  • Grading plans that direct water flow efficiently
  • Integration with stormwater detention/retention basins
  • Erosion control measures to protect land integrity
  • Compliance with local and federal stormwater regulations

By incorporating smart drainage solutions, we create grading designs that enhance long-term site performance.

Slope Analysis & Retaining Wall Design

Steep slopes can lead to landslides, erosion, and instability. We provide:

  • Slope stabilization solutions for hilly or uneven terrain
  • Terracing and benching strategies to reduce soil movement
  • Retaining wall design to support elevated structures
  • Reinforced soil techniques for slope reinforcement

Our team ensures that graded slopes remain stable and erosion-resistant, even under extreme weather conditions.

Land Development & Site Preparation

We provide grading and earthwork design for a variety of land development projects, including:

  • Residential subdivisions and master-planned communities
  • Commercial and industrial developments
  • Public infrastructure projects (roads, parks, and utilities)
  • Municipal and government facility developments

Our grading and earthwork solutions help streamline site preparation for faster project completion.
