Subgrade — Drawing Example for Sports
Define the finished purpose, reference levels, underlying material condition and the evidence required by the receiving operation. Geometry alone does not establish structural or agronomic performance.
This reference assembles relevant extracts from the guide library. It is general project planning, not a local project report, verified specification or translated technical publication.
Uneven Subgrade
Uneven subgrade can create variable thickness in every layer above it. Correcting the surface is useful only if the underlying support is acceptable.
Before moving material
Identify soft areas and compare formation levels with design.
Receiving operation and checks
Complete compaction and specified acceptance checks. Check levels before base material conceals the subgrade.
A scraper does not replace proof testing or project-specific investigation.

Before road base is placed, the subgrade should be accepted for both level and condition. An uneven or weak supporting surface can lead to thickness variation and premature failure above it.
Before moving material
Confirm formation level and identify unaccepted areas.
Receiving operation and checks
Inspect and accept before spreading base aggregate. Record level and material checks for the same work area.
Adding more base material is not automatically a remedy for weak subgrade.

A sports-turf handover should identify the formation, drainage and growing-layer system delivered. Playing-surface appearance alone does not establish venue acceptance.
Before moving material
Obtain the applicable project and sport requirements.
Receiving operation and checks
Complete the venue's inspection and release process. Retain measured levels and relevant construction records.
No sport or venue compliance is claimed from illustration or grading alone.
