Presentation Description: Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE) is a specialized branch of civil engineering that focuses on the identification, mapping, and management of underground utilities such as water, gas, electric, telecommunications, and sewer lines. Its primary purpose is to reduce risks, prevent utility damage, and enhance the safety and efficiency of construction projects. SUE employs various technologies, including ground-penetrating radar (GPR), electromagnetic locating, and vacuum excavation, to detect and locate buried utilities. By integrating SUE into project planning, engineers can avoid costly conflicts, delays, and safety hazards associated with unknown or inaccurately mapped underground infrastructure.
