Headstone Setting Details Technical Drawing

This is a technical drawing exhibit from the National Cemetery Administration (Department of Veterans Affairs) that provides installation specifications and cross-sectional details for headstone and flat marker placement at Santa Fe National Cemetery in Santa Fe, New Mexico.

The drawing presents four installation configurations: (1) Upright Headstone Installation (Base Bid) featuring a standard headstone set on compacted crushed aggregate base with 4 inches of amended topsoil and turfgrass sod finish; (2) Flat Marker Installation (Options) showing a cross-sectional view with the marker positioned 1 inch above finish grade on compacted 1/4-inch minus leveling sand, plastic marker support grid, and 3/4-inch minus aggregate base; (3) Flat Marker Installation (Options) in plan view with similar specifications showing marker dimensions of 24 inches wide or 18 inches wide; and (4) Flat Marker Installation (Options) in sectional view with plastic marker support geogrid and fill cells amended with topsoil. All installations require subgrade scarification, amendment, and recompaction throughout, with amended topsoil specified as a homogenous blend of native and imported topsoil. The drawing includes multiple notes clarifying that flat marker thickness varies and must be verified in the field with adjustments made to the marker support system as required. This technical specification document serves as a standard for construction contractors performing headstone installation and ground preparation work at the national cemetery.
