Project Name
Green Valley Estates
Green Valley Estates is a premier residential development project characterized by its proximity to streams and wetlands and its challenging, steep terrain. This 95-acre site in Wake County, North Carolina, demands innovative engineering solutions to overcome its unique set of obstacles, including road slope management, rocky underground conditions, and the need to preserve the surrounding environment.

Project Vision and Challenges
Green Valley Estates aims to offer a harmonious living environment that integrates seamlessly with the natural landscape. However, achieving this vision requires overcoming several significant challenges:
Key Challenges
01.
Road Profile Design
Designing road profiles with appropriate minimum and maximum slopes suitable for each area to ensure safe and efficient transportation.
02.
Utility Pipe Design Among Rocks
The presence of extensive underground rock formations complicates the design and installation of utility pipes.
03.
Environmental Impact Minimization
Minimizing the environmental footprint, particularly concerning buffer zones around streams and wetlands, is crucial for the project’s sustainability.
The solution
To address these challenges, AXA Engineers has implemented the following strategic solutions:
Iterative Profile Adjustment:
Utilizing advanced design software like Autodesk Civil 3D, we repeatedly adjust road profiles to meet design requirements and standards. This iterative approach ensures compliance with slope regulations and optimizes the design process for the best possible outcomes.
Existing Topography Survey:
We employ extensive topographic surveys to accurately map the terrain and adjust the positions of utility pipes to avoid underground rock formations. Advanced geographic surveys and 3D simulation technology provide precise data, ensuring that the design is both feasible and efficient while minimizing the risk of encountering rocks during construction.
Environmental Protection Retaining Wall Design:
To mitigate environmental impact, we design retaining walls that prevent soil and rocks from disturbing streams and wetlands. These walls are complemented by erosion and sediment control measures, preserving the natural landscape and maintaining ecological balance.
