SERVICES
|
| Ozark Mountain Consultants provides a comprehensive range of survey and civil engineering services. We have extensive experience with commercial, residential, and public works projects. Our land surveying experience is very diverse. Projects have ranged from urban surveys to back country locations. They have included right-of-way surveys, easements, encroachments, A.L.T.A. surveys, single-family lot surveys, major commercial/industrial design surveys, and heavy construction. Our services include: |
| BOUNDARY SURVEYS
A boundary survey of the subject property will locate the property corners and verify their location. If the corners are missing or in error, the corners can be reset. A check for violations or encroachments onto or from the subject property will be made. This type of survey can be used by the property owner for the construction of a fence, structure, or other improvements. CLICK HERE for an example. |
| CONSTRUCTION STAKING
Provide all aspects of construction staking from subdivision infrastructure layout, from simple construction staking of new home site plans, to commercial water and sewer projects, to apartment and commercial building site layouts. Examples: CS1 CS2 CS3 CS4 |
| ALTA SURVEYS
This is the most comprehensive type of survey as developed by a joint effort of the American Land Title Association and the American Congress on Surveying and Mapping. The ALTA standards are a nationwide uniform set of standards. The survey is specifically designed to satisfy the needs of lenders, corporations and title companies when dealing with valuable commercial properties. Visit ALTA for more information.

| LAND PLANNING
Is a term used that encompasses various disciplines that seeks to obtain for potential clients the most efficient use of the land in keeping with the various regulatory bodies that is in its jurisdiction. CLICK HERE for an example.

| COVING
We at Ozark Mountain Consultants can offer creative alternatives to Subdivision Design by incorporating the concept of “Coving”. Coving is a method of subdivision characterized by non-uniform lot shapes and home placement. When combined with winding roads, lot areas increased and road area reduced. Coving is used as an alternative to conventional “grid” subdivision layout in order to reduce cost, such as road surfaces, while improving aesthetics. It is a meandering graceful curved greenway formed by homes creating an open space between the front of the homes and edge of the streets.CLICK HERE for an example coving. |
| SUBDIVISION DESIGN
Subdivision emphasizes the fragmentation of land, rather than the creation of a proper neighborhood of homes and relationships. Often what client’s desire is the chance to live in a real human settlement with a sense of place and a sense of belonging. Historically, conventional approaches to subdivision development have ultimately produced nothing more than house lots and streets. This process has evolved into creating a seamless blanket of “wall to wall subdivisions” with no open space. CLICK HERE for an example subdivision design. |
| WATER SYSTEMS
Design of water well, water storage, pressure facilities and water distribution systems. CLICK HERE or CLICK HERE for examples of Water System Design. |
| WASTE WATER TREATMENT
Design of sewage collection systems, sewage pumping stations and waste water treatment facilities.CLICK HERE for an example. |
| RESIDENTIAL LOT SURVEYS
A survey will show you where the actual boundaries of your property are. A survey can also point out possible problems with the land (you encroaching on your neighbour’s property, or the other way around). Land usually has stakes or markers showing where the property boundaries are. A survey will give you an accurate idea of your property’s boundaries. CLICK HERE for an example. |
| CIVIL ENGINEERING
Civil engineering is a professional engineering discipline that deals with the design and construction of the physical and natural built environment, including works such as bridges, roads, water and waste water systems, site design and grading layouts for commercial property.

| TOPOGRAPHICAL SURVEYS
Topographic surveying involves the production of maps and plans which are true to scale. Topographic maps are produced to accurately represent details of both the natural and built environment. They will also include symbols representing features or data too small to produce to scale.
Height information is added in most cases as spot heights and feature elevations. This height information is related to a control datum such as Ordnance Datum or a fixed local datum. Height information is also used to generate contours to provide a better visual representation of the changes in terrain height across the site. Topographical and Site Surveys are directed towards planning and design for Architectural and Engineering purposes. CLICK HERE for an example. |
