Site Design Considerations
• Minimum driveway and lawn slope of 1/4” per
foot
• Single-car driveway at least 10’
• Double-car driveway at least 18’
• Minimum turn radius of 15’ for a driveway

Site Design Considerations
• Leave room for expanded utilities
• Do not encroach on easements (property
right-of-way)
• Follow basic grading rules
• Identify remaining trees after construction
• Design retaining walls to minimize erosion
and maintain a level lawn
5
Property Lines
• Label boundaries with
a bearing and distance
• The Delta angle () is
the included angle of
the curve if the
boundary is not
straight

Steps in Site Layout
• Select the proper paper size and scale
• Lay out the site plan based on a given plat or
legal description using construction lines
– Draw only the outline of the floor plan
– Include setbacks, sidewalks, and other
features

Steps in Site Layout

Steps in Site Layout
• Darken all property and other lines
• Add dimensions and elevations
– Keep extension and dimension lines short
– Label important features
• Add north arrow, legal description, title,
scale, client’s name, and other pertinent
information

Drawing Contour Lines
• Grid Survey - Divides the plot into small
squares like a checkerboard
• Control Point Survey - Uses elevations
recorded on a map to create the plot
• Radial Survey - A series of angular and
distance measurements are established from
a given central point
11
Using Grid Survey
• Drive stakes into the ground in a grid pattern
at a particular elevation
• Space stakes at a common interval
• Label vertical lines with letters
• Label horizontal lines with numbers (stations)
• Transpose field notes onto grid
12
Drawing Contour Lines
• Draw a grid or create a GRID layer
• Label elevation at grid intersection using field
notes
• Determine contour interval and connect
points
• Estimate remaining lines
• Label elevation on index contour lines and
darken them

Drawing Profiles
• Profile is a vertical section of the ground
surface and earth below
• Draw the profile line on the contour map
• Establish vertical scale
• Project a line vertically to elevation line from
each contour crossing of the profile line
• Draw the profile by connecting the points

Drawing Grading Plan
• Determine the angle of repose and areas to
cut and fill
• Draw parallel lines to represent elevation at
the cut and fill
• Mark points where parallel lines and contour
lines intersect
• Connect all points and shade cut and fill areas

Site Planning with CADD
• Site plans are more
accurate
• Symbols are loaded
into the program for
easy retrieval
• Terrain model shows
contour lines in 3D
