Unlock Before you dig

Slope, LER dig request and soil from roads

Enter excavation depth, bottom width and length, and get the slope requirement (vertical down to 1.70 m in stable soil, 2:1 down to 5 m, 1:1 below that), the width at the top, the excavated volume and the alternatives without room. The checklist also tells you whether you need a LER dig request and whether the soil must be notified to the municipality.
