You will take this amount and multiply it by the width of the obstacle to get the square footage. If it is a bowled area, take the average of the top (by coping) and bottom measurements and multiply by length of transition. If drawing is to scale, you can use a string around these curvatures to find width.

Bid Assistance The last step is to solicit bids for the construction of your skatepark. By advertising for competitive bids with our construction Document Package, you are assured to get true “apples to apples” bids from qualified skatepark builders.

Detailed Drawings Skatepark construction requires very detailed plans outlining how every inch of the park is to be built. We engineer and depict the size, length, radius, material, and dimension of every element in the skatepark. All surface area slope calculations are provided along with drawings detailing every connection in the park. These drawings are the blueprints to ensure your projects success.

Prequalification Forms Skatepark construction requires very specific material types, sizes, and placement tolerances in order to achieve the optimum skating experience. By prequalifying con-tractors you get the peace of mind knowing that the builder of your skatepark is experienced and motivated to make your skatepark project a success.

Specifications in addition to the detailed drawings, a book of written specifications is necessary to complete the level of detail needed to relay all project information to your builder. Our skatepark specification book includes all concrete mix designs, metal fabrication charts, and reinforcement strength requirements to ensure your skatepark is built to the highest standard.

The final step in planning your skatepark is to have your concept design detailed into a comprehensive set of permit-ready con-struction documents. Our team of engineers has over a decade of experience in creating workable construction drawings and specifications. All drawings are sealed with a state specific engineers stamp upon completion and are delivered to you in both digital form and large format paper prints. These drawings will be required by your city for permitting and are necessary to advertise for competitive bids. in addition we provide all the insurance, bonding, and experience requirements you will need to pre-qualify skatepark contractors to ensure your skatepark is constructed by an experienced and reputable skatepark builder. You have spent a lot of effort creating a design that is unique to your community; our construction Document Package ensures that your skatepark vision is translated though to completion.
