Pipe & Excavation Contracting Revised by Dan Atcheson

This popular manual has been updated and improved to bring it more current with modern earthmoving and trenching equipment, refined excavation techniques, stricter safety rules, and improved materials. Here you'll find how to enter and succeed in the underground utility business. Includes hands-on instructions for operating the equipment and doing the trenching, pipe laying and connecting work and answers to what causes so many skilled equipment operators and pipelayers to fail when they try to start their own business.

Learn how to find the right kind of work, read and compute quantities from the plans, figure realistic crew and equipment productivity rates, consider job variables, calculate your O & P, then estimate and bid the job, and get the bonds you need. Also, how to deal with change orders and liquidated damages, choosing the right equipment, and handling safety issues.

Dave Roberts is a trial lawyer who is licensed to practice in the states of Oklahoma and Texas. Scribes, The American Society of Law Writers, has named him a Life Sustaining Member. Several legal publications have published his work. His wife died of breast cancer in 1986. His daughter died in 2010 from a drug and alcohol overdose.

He was diagnosed with leukemia in 2012 and underwent treatment. He underwent a successful stem-cell transplant, which miraculously saved his life. He was inspired to write this book because of his love for the Bible. The majority of people do not read the Bible.

Dave believes that his book will encourage others to read the Bible and incorporate it into their daily lives.
