A subdivision may be desired by a developer who wants to construct multiple homes on a large plot of land, a private landowner who wishes to sell parcels independently or a city that needs to section its boundaries. Read further to understand the initial processes—commencing with engineering and surveying—which anticipate subdivision development.

Construction engineering management turns the element of design into physical reality. Construction engineering managers work alongside owners, designers and builders to optimize the construction of anything from affordable government housing to private shopping centers.

In August 2021, Coffey was awarded by Hall-Irwin Corporation (HIC) the surveying for Phases 2 and 3 of the Hidden Creek residential development in Frederick, Colorado. There are many different types of land surveying; however, Coffey will perform construction staking for HIC.

Land surveying has experienced a revolutionary advancement in technology, especially when one considers that this ancient practice has evolved from 1400 B.C. when the Egyptians began taxing land plots, to the unmanned aircraft systems of today.

Coffey performed all the materials testing for Premier Bone & Joint Center’s (PB&J) new surgical and rehabilitation facility. Services included were soil compaction, concrete testing, steel reinforcement inspection and critical bolted and welded connections.

Materials testing is a regulatory requirement for most massive projects. Complications from not building with the right material could cause financial setbacks, project complications, and in some cases, more serious consequences like infrastructure malfunction or collapse.
