Commercial equipment yard & facility – site development — Berkeley, MO
St. Louis County · 2025
Project summary
In Berkeley, North St. Louis County, Kuesel built the site for a commercial equipment yard and building. Crews cleared, removed existing pavement and storm structures, stripped topsoil and graded, then stabilized the subgrade with 10" of Portland cement treatment before placing a 10" asphalt millings surface.
Utility work included 2,554 LF of storm sewer with 17 precast structures, 2,440 CY of bio-retention, 510 CY of rock outlet protection, 415 LF of sanitary sewer with a grease trap, and about 700 LF of water service with a detector check vault.

Challenge → approach
A yard for heavy equipment needs a working surface that holds up. Kuesel treated the subgrade in place with 10" of Portland cement instead of undercutting it, then capped it with millings, and built a storm system with large bio-retention and rock outlet protection to handle the runoff.
