About this file

This document is a technical drawing specification for headstone and flat marker installation at Santa Fe National Cemetery, prepared by the National Cemetery Administration under the Department of Veterans Affairs.

The drawing (Exhibit B, Drawing L-2) provides four detailed installation options with plan, section, and cross-section views. Option 1 presents the base bid upright headstone installation, requiring compacted crushed aggregate base, 4 inches of amended topsoil (a homogenous blend of native and imported topsoil) over aggregate backfill, and turfgrass sod finish. Options 2, 3, and 4 detail flat marker installations with variations including plastic marker support grids or geogrids, compacted 3/4-inch minus aggregate base, and 1/4-inch minus levelling sand or aggregate. All installations specify scarified, amended, and re-compacted subgrade throughout. Marker dimensions include 24-inch wide markers with 36-inch installation width and 18-inch wide markers with 24-inch installation width. The specifications require verification of flat marker thickness in the field with adjustment of support systems as needed. All installations maintain finish grade with amended topsoil at 1 inch above flat markers and include native soil restoration. The drawing references VA Form 08-6231 and indicates amendments throughout the project scope.
