Choosing equipment for drainage and dewatering

This work can include water control, trench support, pumping and pipeline installation. Start with the outcome and constraints before choosing a machine class.

Likely equipment pathways

Details suppliers will need

Share quantities, material type, travel distance, access, ground conditions, attachments, hours, site rules and the target programme. Confirm that any suggested plant suits the risk assessment and work method for your project.

Flow, head and solids

Quantify the work and describe the operating condition rather than relying on a machine name. This helps suppliers recommend a realistic configuration and support plan.

Discharge requirements

Measure access, working room and interfaces with people, traffic and services. These constraints can control the machine size and delivery method.

Backup and power

Align transport, operators, attachments, fuel, maintenance, standby and contingency so every quote is based on the same scope.
