Advantages of FODS in Heavy Civil Projects
The FODS Trackout Control System has become the industry standard with leading general contractors for construction entrances on highway, bridge, and heavy civil projects. Designed to stop trackout at the source, FODS offers a modern, rockless alternative to traditional stabilized construction entrances.
Engineered for performance, efficiency, and compliance, the FODS Reusable Construction Entrance delivers unmatched advantages for contractors, project owners, and regulatory agencies alike. Its real world tested and proven durability, cost-effectiveness, labor reduction and ease of deployment make it an ideal solution for a broad range of civil infrastructure projects.
Key Advantages
• Smart ROI & Long-Term Value FODS mats deliver a lower total cost of ownership compared to rock entrances. Their reusability, extended service life, and elimination of recurring rock replacement expenses result in a clear return on investment.
• Stable & Anchored Platform Provides a safe, secure, anchored, and construction exit that withstands heavy civil construction equipment while maintaining stability and effectiveness.
• Rapid Deployment & Reuse Installation takes less than 30 minutes. FODS can be easily moved, removed, relocated, and reused multiple times across different project phases or sites.
• Risk Management & Compliance Support Reduces the liability that contractors and project owners experience with ineffective entrances by minimizing trackout, meeting BMP standards, and supporting SWPPP compliance.
• Trackout & Sediment Control Helps prevent mud and debris from leaving construction zones, while also reducing fugitive dust, sediment migration, and stormwater pollution.
• Versatile Application Can be anchored to virtually any substrate—including directly to dirt substrates, concrete, asphalt, and pavement—making it suitable for diverse environments and conditions.
• Proven Longevity Constructed for more than ten years of continuous use, delivering consistent performance throughout the life of multiple projects.
Why FODS Works for Heavy Civil Projects
Highway, bridge, water supply, and other infrastructure construction sites present unique challenges in managing sediment and debris. Traditional rock entrances demand constant maintenance, frequent rock refresh or replacement, and additional disposal costs. FODS eliminates these inefficiencies while improving environmental compliance and site safety.
By replacing rock with a durable, engineered solution, FODS helps heavy civil contractors reduce operating costs, control labor cost, accelerate project timelines, and improve regulatory outcomes.
