  • Material classification and swell
  • Haul distance and gradients
  • Compaction specification

Site readiness and operating controls

  • Approved access and induction
  • Safe work areas and traffic controls

  • Hire duration and shift pattern
  • Wet or dry hire requirements
  • Transport and establishment
