What is Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE)?
Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE) is the process of accurately locating and identifying underground utilities to help support the design and construction of engineering projects.
Rapid development and growth in urban and rural areas have contributed to the expansion and overcrowding of underground utilities. From the first phone lines to gas mains, water mains, and fiber optic lines, these utilities need to be properly located and identified for the design and construction of civil projects.
